Carolina rising senior K.J. Smith knew he'd eventually be able to use what he's learned in his dual communications and sports administration major at Carolina. He just didn't know it would happen during one of the most unusual summers of his life.
Like the rest of the Tar Heels, Smith went home somewhat abruptly and unexpectedly a few days after Carolina's ACC Tournament loss to Syracuse. What he didn't know at the time was that a summer he'd planned to be full of Smith Center workouts and summer school classes was about to change.
All of Carolina's summer school classes are being conducted virtually, which presents a challenge for students like Smith, who thrive off personal interaction.
