Posted Apr 19, 2026
One post shows what’s believed to be the oldest existing photo of UNC, a daguerreotype of sophomores from the 1850s. Another, posted on the first day of Carolina’s football season, depicts Kenan Stadium in the 1920s. Some place a spotlight on historical firsts, like the University’s first three Black undergraduate students who enrolled in 1955.
