225 years of Tar Heels: Michele Buck


If you’ve had a Hershey’s Kiss, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup or a Twizzlerin the past year, you have a UNC graduate to thank. Michele Buck, who earned an MBA from Kenan-Flagler School of Business in 1987, became CEO of The Hershey Company in 2017. Before becoming CEO of the company that delivers over $7.5 billion in annual revenue, Buck paid her dues. (UNC.edu)
