Hannah-Jones, After Successfully Intimidating UNC into Tenure Position, Declines It

‘I accepted it after going through months and months of the tenure process’

EXCERPT:

KING: "What have you decided to do? We just heard the vote was 9-4 offering you the tenure. What have you decided?"
HANNAH-JONES: "Well, I’ve decided to decline the offer of tenure. I will not be teaching on the faculty of University of North Carolina Chapel Hill. It's a very difficult decision, not a decision I wanted to make. And instead, I'm going to be the inaugural Knight Chair in race and journalism at Howard University."
