The start of a new school year at UNC


Thousands of new Tar Heels joined the Carolina community on Friday and Saturday as they settled into their new on-campus homes. The two-day move-in was the official start of UNC-Chapel Hill’s annual Week of Welcome and marked the beginning of a new year. The incoming undergraduates come from 97 North Carolina counties, 42 states and 50 countries. (UNC.edu)
