What is it that binds us to this speech? Charles Kuralt’s 1993 UNC Bicentennial Address
Posted Feb 5, 2021
Charles Kuralt expanded on this theme, and on his own appreciation for UNC, in his 1993 address, delivered in Kenan Stadium before an audience that included President Bill Clinton and Governor Jim Hunt. In a memorable opening, Kuralt said “I speak for all of us who could not afford to go to Duke, and would not have, even if we could have afforded it.”
