Former Gov. Jim Hunt is being honored for his longtime dedication to education in North Carolina while also being discussed as a possible U.S. education secretary.
North Carolina State University will honor the four-term governor during the College of Education's annual award ceremony Nov. 19.
Hunt has served on the federal Commission on the Future of High Education. He also is scheduled to speak about educational policy during a ceremony for President-elect Barack Obama's administration.
Hunt was a driving force in starting North Carolina's Smart Start early childhood education program. Hunt has served on the federal higher education commission since leaving his post as governor.
His name has been mentioned as Washington observers speculate who will make up Obama's Cabinet.
