Monday 10/26, 6 pm Faculty Town Hall

The UNC System Racial Equity Task Force was established to examine the legacy of race and racism in North Carolina’s public higher education system, how that history shapes and impacts the experiences of our students, faculty, staff and communities, and arrive at an actionable path forward that will build a culture of inclusion across our institutions. These town halls will build on our survey responses that students, faculty and staff shared in September, and will inform the Racial Equity Task Force’s recommendations that will be proposed in December. You can learn more about the Task Force’s efforts here, and you’re welcome to send us additional thoughts, concerns, and valuable input through our Share Your Ideas form
