Nikole Hannah-Jones rejects UNC tenure offer for position at Howard University

Journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones on Tuesday announced she has decided to reject an offer to serve as the chair of the journalism department at the University of North Carolina, and that she will take a similar position at Howard University. 

The decision follows a massive controversy at the North Carolina school, which initially did not offer Hannah-Jones tenure.
