Congratulations to the following faculty members who were approved for promotion and tenure during the Board of Trustees’ Spring meeting.

Meredith College welcomed Damon Tweedy, a physician and author, for its Spring 2021 Convocation, which was held virtually on February 25, 2021.

Meredith College Professor of Art Shannon Johnstone played a role in a recent story that went viral on social media and was featured in numerous media outlets. “The photographs feature Sisu, a stray dog in Duplin County who broke into a Dollar General store five times to steal the same purple unicorn,” Johnstone explained. “Animal Control was called and the officer bought the stuffed animal for the dog before bringing him to the shelter.”

Meredith College is one of seven colleges and universities from across the country selected to serve as regional hubs for a multiyear project of the Council of Independent Colleges (CIC).

fter a spring semester that had to quickly shift to a remote learning model as the COVID-19 pandemic worsened, Meredith College leaders spent the summer of 2020 preparing for an unprecedented fall semester.
