The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Faculty Council has a history of issuing resolutions in support of a safe and inclusive campus and specific communities. Since 2013, it has passed at least eight such resolutions. These include, for example, resolutions in support of transgender individuals; people of color; Black individuals; and Asian, Asian-American,

Someone called Oct. 7 “a beautiful day” at a University of North Carolina event. The Faculty Council then “indefinitely postponed” a resolution that would have condemned the statement. Nearly two months after the start of the war between Hamas and Israel last fall, a speaker at an event sponsored by an academic department at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill uttered these words: “Oct. 7, for many of us from the region, was a beautiful day.”

At Carolina, students work with faculty mentors to make groundbreaking discoveries.

On March 22, campus leaders gathered to cut the ribbon on the Collaboratory’s new dedicated space on campus in the Kenan Labs.
