Suspecting Plot to Oust Chancellor, Chapel Hill Faculty Gears Up for (Another) Fight
Kevin Guskiewicz, chancellor of the U. of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Fresh off a contentious battle to force a tenure vote for Nikole Hannah-Jones, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill faculty members are fending off a possible effort to oust the campus’s chancellor.
At an emergency meeting of the Faculty Council on Wednesday, Mimi V. Chapman, chair of the faculty, laid out what she described as multi-sourced evidence of a push to remove Kevin M. Guskiewicz from the flagship’s top post. Chapman said she had been contacted by an unnamed source “who was alarmed about a meeting they had been a part of in which names were being solicited for an interim chancellor.”

The Faculty Council at UNC Chapel Hill has passed a resolution in support of Chancellor Kevin Guskiewicz. It comes as the chair of the Faculty Council, Mimi Chapman, said she was contacted by someone over the weekend who had been in a meeting where names were being solicited for interim chancellor.
Chapman organized an emergency – and sometimes contentious – meeting of the Faculty Council on Wednesday evening, which passed the resolution that affirmed confidence in Guskiewicz and in the expectation of shared governance. It is my strong belief that this is not a time for a leadership change on our campus, Chapman said.

RALEIGH â Will North Carolina Republicans have smashing victories in the 2022 midterms? Many politicos are acting as if they will, and it isnât hard to understand why.
Since the advent of the modern party system, the party controlling the presidency has almost always suffered losses in midterm elections. The party tends to lose seats in the U.S. Senate and House. It tends to lose governorships and other state offices.
The anti-White House wave typically reaches legislative and local races, as well. Since 1970, the presidentâs party has lost an average of 13 seats in the North Carolina General Assembly in the midterms. If something like that happened in 2022, the Republicans would likely reclaim supermajorities in both legislative chambers. There are also two seats up for North Carolina Supreme Court. If the GOP picks up just one of them, it would reclaim a majority there, as well.
