At the resumes of the members of the board of trustees, who felt that they were better qualified than the faculty and the peer reviewers at the university of north carolina to determine that i was not worthy of tenure. and i really decided that i didnt want to be in a position where political appointees would have any say over my career or my life again. and then of course there was the largest donor to the school, the university of north carolina, walter huntsman, who we found out in the last s...

Didnt want to be in a position where political appointees would have any say over my career or my life again. and then of course there was the largest donor to the school, the university of north carolina, walter huntsman, who we found out in the last six week had been lobbying against me privately and then who went on kind of a national speaking tour to castigate me as a journalist publicly. and his name is on the school. it became very difficult for me to believe i could maintain my dignity an...

Want to put the burden on you either. >> dean, again, i know you wanted her there, but how did unc blow this so badly? >> on every front. and i dont totally understand it. i think nicole and i are still sometimes unsure exactly what happened in every point. but, the 1619 project has been acclaimed and also been criticized and it raised questions over time and we try to meet those questions at every moment. and i do also want to emphasize that i think weve got to celebrate that last week when the...
