School establishes fund in honor of Carl Stenburg
Whether you were one of his students, a colleague, or a supporter of the UNC MPA program, you likely witnessed the impact of Carl Stenberg.
Carl mentored generations of MPA students, helping prepare them for careers in public service. His influence extended far beyond North Carolina: as a Fellow and former board chair of the National Academy of Public Administration, and through leadership roles in organizations like the American Society for Public Administration and the International City-County Managers Association, he helped shape the national conversation on public governance.
The Carl Stenberg Local Government Research and Professional Development Fund was established as a living tribute to Carl’s legacy. The fund empowers students to pursue hands-on experiences, research, and service that align with the values Carl embodied: leadership, scholarship, and a deep commitment to local government.
Today we invite you to make a gift to the Carl Stenberg Local Government Research and Professional Development Fund and support MPA students following the path that Carl helped so many discover.
