New Gift Enables School to Recruit Promising Faculty

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill announced Thursday that it received a $5 million gift from the William R. Kenan Charitable Trust, as well as an anonymous $500,000 gift, to recruit junior faculty.  As part of this gift, the School of Nursing was designated to receive funding for one new faculty position.
These gifts are aligned with one of Dean Kristen M. Swanson’s top priorities – recruiting and hiring new faculty. The new funds are expendable, meaning they can be spent immediately to attract talented junior faculty members who have excelled in their fields.
“The School of Nursing currently has an open search.  We have had some very promising candidates. This news could not have come at a more perfect time,” Swanson said. “We are very excited by the possibilities opened up through this very generous gift to the University and the School of Nursing.”
