Nikole Hannah-Jones The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill on Wednesday awarded tenure to Nikole Hannah-Jones, a dramatic turnabout in the saga that has come to symbolize public colleges’ vulnerability to political forces in a polarized country. The university’s Board of Trustees formally voted, 9 to 4, in favor of bestowing the status on Hannah-Jones, a Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times journalist and lead author of the controversial “1619 Project,” in a special meeting. The board’s vote capped a hectic few days in which the university’s student-body president, Lamar Richards, had petitioned his fellow board members to officially vote on Hannah-Jones before July 1, when she was scheduled to begin work as the holder of an endowed chair in UNC’s Hussman School of Journalism and Media. Hannah-Jones’s lawyers had written in a letter that she would not start her position without tenure.
