UNC Leadership Shares Latest Fall 2021 Reopening Plans

UNC Leadership Shares Latest Fall 2021 Reopening Plans   As the university prepares to transition to full, in-person operations, at an employee forum meeting earlier this week, UNC leadership outlined the latest summer and fall semester plans. Chancellor Kevin Guskiewicz said the Carolina Together Testing Program conducted close to 200,000 COVID-19 tests throughout the spring semester. In addition to increased testing, UNC opened a vaccination clinic to students. “Our vaccination clinic [has] gone [well],” Guskiewicz said. “We stood up that clinic about five or six weeks ago. We’ve now vaccinated close to 3,500 students. We know just by some of the surveying we’ve been doing that there are many many more students that are vaccinated. They got vaccinated at other locations around the state.”

Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost Robert A Blouin to step down by the end of this calendar year

Dear Carolina Community, I write to share that Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost Robert A. Blouin will step down from his position by the end of this calendar year and resume his work as the Vaughn and Nancy Bryson Distinguished Professor in the Eshelman School of Pharmacy. A well-respected educator, innovator, researcher and administrator, Bob has been a source of unwavering support for the University, guiding some of our most important and challenging work. Bob was named Carolina’s 15th provost in August 2017. Every day, he has conducted his role with the utmost dignity and respect for his administrative colleagues, faculty associates, students and community partners. Bob goes the extra mile in everything he does and is routinely the first person in South Building and the last one to leave each day. I am grateful for his steadfast support and passion for Carolina’s mission to serve our state, nation and the world.

UNC Leadership Looks Ahead to a Normal Fall Semester

After more than a year of remote learning, UNC is looking ahead to a “traditional” fall semester. With rigorous COVID-19 precautions and more students having received their vaccine, university leaders said they look forward to welcoming students back on campus. UNC is planning a return to normal campus operations by mid-July – allowing a month between students returning to campus in August and employees returning in July. During the summer session, most classes will remain remote with select classes like labs meeting in-person. Chancellor Kevin Guskiewicz said he understands the complications and frustrations of remote learning. “Right now we’re sort of in that complicated time on our campus where we can see the light at the end of the tunnel, but we’re not yet at the end of the tunnel, but I’m confident we’re going to be able to get there,” Guskiewicz said.
