TO THE EDITOR:
A few weeks ago, I was disappointed to find out that Dr. Taffye Benson Clayton would be leaving UNC.
I did not believe it to be true, but come to find out, she in fact will no longer be serving as UNC’s Chief Diversity Officer. What is shocking, however, is the lack of coverage surrounding Clayton’s departure. One would assume if this was the traditional exit of a school administrator, that it would have been met with lots of fanfare. However, Dr. Clayton’s was seemingly not. During her several years at UNC, Dr. Clayton was a huge asset to the university community, and as students, she served us very well. I believe any student that had the opportunity to work with her would attest to that. She will be greatly missed.
