Federal Updates
As you have heard, several executive orders have recently been issued by the White House, including some that may have implications related to equal opportunity and affirmative action. We are awaiting guidance from relevant federal and state agencies, the UNC System Office and the Office of State Human Resources. As more detailed information and guidance is available, we will continue to review and address the details and provide the university community with relevant updates. In the meantime, if you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out to our office for guidance and support.
