CHAPEL HILL—The Class of 2020 may hear a few dadgums of affection during its Commencement ceremony this fall.
Roy Williams, a two-time Carolina graduate who led the men's basketball team to three NCAA championships during his 18 years as head coach here, will be the keynote speaker at the Class of 2020's long-awaited Commencement celebration.
The historic ceremony is scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 10, at Kenan Stadium. The class's original Commencement ceremony set for May 2020 was postponed because of the COVID-19 pandemic. This will be the first known Carolina commencement to be held in October.
