225 years of Tar Heels: Charles Kuralt
Posted Oct 8, 2018
“What is it that binds us to this place as to no other? It is not the well or the bell or the stone walls. Or the crisp October nights or the memory of dogwoods blooming,” Charles Kuralt told the crowd at Kenan Stadium for UNC's bicentennial celebration in 1993. "No, our love for this place is based on the fact that it is, as it was meant to be, the University of the people.”
