Megan Pugh

Megan Pugh, formerly the Dean of Students at UNC Asheville, gained media attention after an undercover video surfaced in which she admitted to continuing diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives at the university despite a ban from the University of North Carolina System Board of Governors. Her comments, which included a willingness to circumvent established policies, led to her termination from the university as officials stated her remarks did not reflect institutional practices.
