William O. McCoy was chief administrative officer of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill from 12 April to 1 June 1999 and from 9 July 1999 through 15 August 2000. During the period 12 April to 1 June 1999, McCoy served as the university's acting chancellor while Chancellor Michael Hooker took a medical leave to undergo treatment for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Hooker succumbed to cancer on 29 June 1999, and on July 9 the UNC Board of Governors named McCoy interim chancellor. McCoy served in this capacity until 15 August 2000, when James Moeser was appointed chancellor. Records include correspondence and other files relating to the administration of, and academic programs at, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Of particular interest are files on public relations and the university's public service mission in the aftermath of Hurricane Floyd; the establishment, with Duke University, of the Robertson Scholars Program; campus race relations; and the development of standards for trademark licensing.
