The UNC System Board of Governors approved the selection of Lee Roberts as the 13th chancellor in Chapel Hill University’s history on Friday morning during a specially called session. The pick further elevates Roberts’ status after he was chosen to serve as interim chancellor by UNC System President Peter Hans last December following Kevin Guskiewicz’s departure for Michigan State.

The selection process — which lasted several months and included an advisory search committee — finding its interim leader is not new to the campus community, with Guskiewicz having served as the interim chancellor for 10 months before his elevation to the permanent job in 2019.

Roberts’ professional path to chancellor is different than Carolina’s past leaders. With a background in finance, he began his career at Morgan Stanley doing real estate investment banking before becoming the managing director of Piedmont Community Bank Holdings. He served on North Carolina’s Banking Commission from 2012 to 2014 before joining Gov. Pat McCrory’s administration as the state budget director for two years. While his personal higher education experience saw him earn degrees at private schools, Roberts became more involved with the UNC System after joining a task force to review its funding before eventually joining the university system’s Board of Governors in 2021, where he served until abdicating the position to accept the interim chancellorship.
