Oh there absolutely are great faculty there, as there are at any public university. I don't work in the UNC System, so I don't know their governance, but I doubt faculty have a lot of power there. Supportive colleagues might not have been enough for Jones at UNC given the high profile nonsense she endured.

I predict UNC will next ban CRT, and then allow guns in dorm rooms.
