It’s been hard to smile for the last few days.On the last day of class, we all got an email that told us to “Run. Hide. Fight.” On Tuesday I remember running for my life towards the Union where me and other Niners were trapped for over 2 hours, waiting to hear any news about […]

Never did I feel unsafe at UNC Charlotte. She will only become stronger. Students will only become closer. Our community becomes more connected. Recently, I created a video for my classmates, hoping to bring about comfort and peace. The video is dedicated to my UNC Charlotte survivors and their families and friends. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtqeyjViOUU

As a current 49er, I am deeply saddened about the events that occurred a week ago today. I am grateful for the first responders that came to the scene as soon as possible. We will overcome because we are 49er Strong.

We have to continue to come together and create change within our campus and in our country. These victims will never be forgotten, their names will […]

This horrendous tragedy that occurred on our campus has rocked the 49er family to our core. The heartbreak, the terror, and the grief now hang over campus like a dark cloud, but the light is coming as we progress together and heal as a family of 30,000. Our memories of those directly impacted and the […]
