Cancel culture at UNCW drives leadership out



Describing a culture of silencing conservative voices at UNCW, one trustee was driven to quit last week with an openly critical post of Seahawk nation on Facebook. Former UNCW Board of Trustees member Woody White revealed what he sees as a troubling trend in treatment of conservative faculty and students.

“Like too many other American universities, it punishes conservative voices, by looking the other way, by perpetrating the double standard. By knowing that thousands of students engage in self- censorship, but doing nothing about it,” White wrote.

On Friday, September 24, UNCW Chancellor Jose Sartarelli also resigned.

Those associated with the university have said that the resignation was already planned, but criticism of the university leadership has come in the wake of conservative Professor Mike Adams’ suicide last year, and later the online calls for violence against Republicans from a professor who was allowed to retain his position on the faculty.
