Climbing the bell tower with the Class of 2018
Posted Apr 19, 2018
During Senior Week every year, members of UNC's senior class hike up the 128 steps inside the bell tower to sign their name on bricks inside. The UNC General Alumni Association has been hosting the event since 2003. “It’s so beautiful and it’s so sentimental,” said senior Stevie Coleman. “Taking it all in and really just getting to enjoy Carolina’s campus one last time.”
