UNC’s new chancellor lacks traditional academic experience, fitting a trend
Posted Aug 23, 2024
Lee Roberts was selected as UNC’s chancellor after serving as interim leader when former Chancellor Kevin Guskiewicz left the post in January. Roberts resigned from the UNC Board of Governors to take the job. It’s becoming more common for leaders of universities to come from a job other than the traditional tenure-track faculty position.
