The Hunt Institute
The Hunt Institute is a strategic catalyst for transforming public education and securing our country’s future. Established in 2001, and an affiliated center of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, The Hunt Institute honors the legacy of James B. Hunt, Jr., the former governor of North Carolina who distinguished himself as an ardent champion of education. That work continues in earnest today. Their mandate: to inspire elected officials and key policymakers to make informed decisions that result in improving the lives of all children through quality education.
