@UNC Sad day for Tar Heels. We watched this man smile as police surrounded and shoved students to the ground. Literally smile. Shame.

Search committee: Republican. Systems president: Republican. Chancellor: Republican. Of the 3,100 responses you received, how many were positive on Roberts? 100? No doubt from alumni with no business dictating how the university is run. Shame on you. #keepacademiciaacademic

[Adams Sibley, PhD, MPH @AdamsSibley]

And he's clearly a shill for the Republican legislature. What happened to keeping politics out of academia? The message you're sending is clear: UNC no longer values academic integrity or freedom. The national and international communities will take notice. 2/3

[Adams Sibley, PhD, MPH @AdamsSibley]

@UNC You've undermined your credibility by naming Lee Roberts chancellor. The selection process was a formality. He was pushed through before the semester so no students or faculty could make noise. Roberts has NO higher ed experience, bungled the student protest response 1/3

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill was under a shelter-in-place order on Monday afternoon after the school warned that an “armed, dangerous person” was on campus, saying that a suspect was still at large. https://t.co/ctbwOQPrnL

UNC Chapel Hill... The Suspect Has Been Arrested..

When will the Bloodshed END...

@Victorshi2020 Hey y’all. I’m faculty at UNC and no students had to jump out of windows. We were all evacuated in a safe manner. Those students may have wanted to leave the building before we were officially given the all clear, but the captioning is really misleading.

@UNCPolice @UNC @UNCPolice are all the buildings automatically locked from the outside?

Earlier this month in Baltimore, MD, educators and administrators from DLI programs for the QFI DLI Summer Institute. Attendees dove into best practices for DLI instruction, and left the institute feeling energized and ready to tackle the upcoming academic year! #TeachArabic

[Caroline Sibley @LangConnects]

One devastating step back years in time. @uncchapelhill is there no way to fight this? 😰😰😰
