Former Student Body President Christy Lambden has accepted an offer from South Building to work as a Chancellor’s Fellow beginning June 1.
Lambden said the program was initiated this year and will allow graduates the chance to experience the administrative side of UNC.
“I’m still waiting on the visa approval to come through so it’s not entirely 100 percent sure yet, but I received the job offer over the weekend and confirmed that I would be taking the position early on this week,” he said.
According to UNC’s posting for the position, there will be three Chancellor’s Fellows who will serve in the role for one year.
UNC spokeswoman Karen Moon said the position was created in January, and Lambden will be hired on the condition that he passes the screening process that all employees go through.
She did not have the names of the other people who the University will hire.
“This position lends itself to recent graduates who are motivated, intellectually curious and interested in contributing to Carolina. The position will have regular interaction with senior leadership and will work to research, write and contribute to strategic planning for the University,” the job posting reads.
The advertisement also says applicants are required to be recent graduates of UNC.
