Posted Dec 13, 2016
Christopher Armitage, professor of English, will celebrate his 100th semester at UNC in spring 2017. Armitage said he started teaching at the University the same day he received his Ph.D. from Duke University, in 1967. He said one difference he sees between 1967 and 2016 is that more students study abroad. (Daily Tar Heel)
