Message from Chancellor Folt: Welcome back

Chancellor Carol L. Folt shares exciting updates about things going on at Carolina as spring 2017 semester begins.

H. Jared, Thursday, January 12th, 2017

Dear Carolina Community:

Happy 2017! Please take a moment to watch my welcome back video message for a look at what you might have missed while you were away – and what’s coming up this semester.

And a special thanks to all who worked so hard over the past few days to keep us safe and clear our roads, sidewalks and parking lots following the storm.

Thank you,

Carol L. Folt
Chancellor
