During a ceremony at the FedEx Global Education Center attended by 100 faculty, staff and community members, Chancellor Carol L. Foltofficially launched UNC Core, a new distance-learning program for service members. She also announced the addition of a new full-time position dedicated to helping veterans navigate the higher education process.
“We all know that access to higher education changes lives,” Folt said. “We want to make it possible for our active-duty military to be pursuing their educational goals while they’re also serving the nation. By doing so, they will be better prepared to use their skills while they’re actively serving, but also to be able to enter the workforce as civilians, or to continue their education immediately upon leaving the service.”
