Carolina leadership hit the road in October for the annual Tar Heel Bus Tour. With two buses covering both the east and west portions of North Carolina and with stops in 19 counties, the Tar Heel Bus Tour exhibits the University’s commitment to serving all North Carolinians.

The stops span from mountains to coast and include the western North Carolina town of Canton and Whiteville in eastern North Carolina, where bus tour participants get a chance to see some of the work Carolina is doing first-hand.
