Golf with a purpose

Every year, the Chancellors’ Cup Golf Tournament raises money for the Janet B. Royster Memorial Staff Scholarship Fund. The fund is an established scholarship fund that helps UNC System staff pursue degrees, certificates and professional development.

Teams of chancellors, administrators and staff play a captain’s choice format, followed by lunch and an awards reception. Every golfer, sponsor and volunteer helps a colleague somewhere in the system keep growing.
