A tribute to our Tar Heels
Graduate Polaroid portraits
Stay-at-home orders make traditional graduation photos harder to capture, but those Carolina blue caps and gowns and the students wearing them deserve to be highlighted. Enjoy these graduate portraits made in the Age of Zoom.
Thank you, seniors
As our seniors close out their Carolina careers as undergraduates, we want to thank them for leaving their heelprints on the Carolina community.
