UNC Charlotte denies accusation, fires employee linked to viral DEI video

(The Center Square) – UNC Charlotte, third largest of 17 state public system campuses, has fired an employee connected to a viral social media video about diversity, equity and inclusion policies at the school.

Led by Chancellor Dr. Sharon Gaber, the Queen City institution said in a social media post early Thursday afternoon the statements were not accurate in addition to the person’s lack of authority on policy or compliance. The incident played out over a couple of days and drew the attention of respective General Assembly leaders.

The Board of Governors for the UNC System a year ago in May voted 22-2 to change diversity policy on all campuses. Dismantled was the 2019 policy language to “foster an inclusive environment.”
