UNC System Board of Governors Approves 4 New Trustees for UNC-CH
The UNC System Board of Governors approved several new trustees for UNC-Chapel Hill during its monthly full board meeting.
The university system leadership approved Rob Bryan III, Perrin Jones, Malcom Turner and Ramsey White on Thursday morning, adding them to the ranks of the Chapel Hill university’s Board of Trustees.
Bryan, Jones and White’s appointments were unanimously approved, while Turner’s candidacy had a separate vote. While some system governors expressed concerns about Turner’s current role as head of strategy and corporate development for the sports gambling site DraftKings, his appointment also passed with an 18-6 vote.
SFFilm is making big changes to accommodate the pandemic for its 64th Annual San Francisco International Film Festival to be held from April 9 through 18 that will include primarily online streaming but some in-person events at the Fort Mason Flix drive-in theater.
Screenings are being opened up for filmgoers from across the country. There will be new ways for audiences to connect digitally with artists and other festival-attendees through the
SFFilm website. The Festival s daring diverse lineup consists of 42 feature films, 56 short films and new this year five mid-length films. 41 countries are represented with 57% of the films helmed by female directors and 57% by BIPOC filmmakers. Still only a handful of the offerings have LGBTQ-related content.
