Graduation & Pinning Ceremony

As part of a cherished Carolina tradition, all graduating first-generation college students are invited to wear a “Carolina Firsts” lapel pin on their graduation regalia, which they receive in the Spring semester prior to graduation. We invite all graduating first-generation college students to join us for this event.
