UNC HOMEPAGE
Editor's note: The following is the text of an e-mail message sent April 17 from Chancellor-elect James Moeser to all Carolina faculty, staff and students. Because of technical logistics, not everyone was able to receive the message.
It's official. The University of North Carolina Board of Governors elected
me April 14 as the ninth chancellor to serve Carolina. I am thrilled to be
taking on that exciting challenge and look forward to working with and on
behalf of all of you.
I wanted to take this brief opportunity to communicate directly with the
Carolina family, some of whom I had the pleasure of meeting in a welcoming
event held Friday (April 14) in the Morehead Building.
I start work on August 15, and Susan and I cannot wait to become permanent
residents of Chapel Hill and members of this extraordinary University
community. In the meantime, I know that Interim Chancellor Bill McCoy will
continue his proficient and dedicated service in South Building.
All of you should be proud to be such an important part of one of the very
best public universities in America. Carolina is unique because of its many
strengths in areas including the liberal arts, the basic sciences, the
professional schools, the five health sciences schools, and the UNC Health Care
system. Carolina is well known around the nation and world for just how well
those interests work together to carry out the missions of teaching, research
and public service that benefit the people of North Carolina, our nation, and
our world.
I know that the spirit of collaboration and cooperation here in Chapel Hill
is strong. That was a major reason I was interested in becoming Carolina's next
leader in a role that will be the greatest honor of my professional
life.
I'm excited to be your new chancellor.
