Happy Thanksgiving, Tar Heels! #UNCAlumni

From the Carolina Alumni Review: Confederate Group Gets Monument in Settlement With BOG Silent Sam’s fate has been settled: The Confederate statue most people on the UNC campus didn’t want has been given to the Sons of Confederate Veterans by the UNC System Board of Governors in a settlement of a lawsuit filed by the Confederate organization. Up to $2.5 million provided by the system in what it called “nonstate funds” will be available to the organization through a trust set up by the system to transport the statue and preserve it. The agreement stipulates that the statue cannot be displayed in any county that is home to one of the 17 system campuses. Full story at https://unc.live/37IdOY7

#TBT (Dec. 4, 1944): The S.S. Chapel Hill Victory was one of several hundred Victory ships — the second generation of the more familiar Liberty ships — built to replace cargo ships that were being sunk by the German military. Built in Baltimore, the Chapel Hill Victory was launched on Dec. 4, 1944, with local dignitaries in attendance. The champagne bottle that was used to christen the ship is now in the care of the Chapel Hill Historical Society. (📷: NC County Photo Collection/Wilson Library)
