A long-awaited celebration for the Carolina Class of 2020

Posted Oct 7, 2021
We are thrilled to welcome home the UNC Class of 2020 this weekend. It was just over a year and a half ago that members of the class left campus for spring break and were not able to return because of the pandemic. Many finished their senior year from their homes and didn’t get the chance to say goodbye. Members of the class will have that opportunity. (UNC.edu)
