We have been promising this book for ten years. The first eight years the only thing we wrote was the title. Black White and Carolina Blue seemed to us and others like a pretty good name for some type of book but there was widespread doubt we would write the rest of it. We have now finished a story we can share. We want to tell it to our personal family members, our friends, our amazing scholarship students, and to all the people in the Carolina Family. There is a long history here dating back to the university founding in 1789. There is a short story of our time there in the 1960's. If you, the reader, do not share part of that history, I hope you will also find the narrative interesting and entertaining. If you do, come spend a spring time day on the campus in Chapel Hill; see a fall football game against our biggest rivals; watch a Carolina/Duke basketball game in the Dean Dome-you will have to plan in your budget to purchase that ticket. Enjoy a lecture, a concert, or a Play-makers production. Enjoy our book and thanks for your support of the University of North Carolina.
