Carolina Forum (University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill)

The Carolina Forum was organized on 1 July 1948 to bring leaders of government, labor, industry, and education, to speak on the University of North Carolina campus. In part, the Carolina Forum took over functions of the Carolina Political Union, which had been organized in 1936 by political science students to bring political leaders to speak on campus and to hold roundtable discussions on current political topics. After the advent of the Carolina Forum, the Carolina Political Union continued to function, but its activity was limited to weekly discussions and occasional speakers.
