Plaques at UNC's Kenan Stadium to be changed, will honor son instead of father

Posted Oct 4, 2018
The University of North Carolina will change plaques inside Kenan Memorial Stadium that honor the donor's father, William Rand Kenan, whose involvement in a historic 19th-century race riot in Wilmington was recently brought to light. The plaques, instead, will focus on his son, William Rand Kenan Jr., who made the donation for the stadium that was built in 1927. (Greensboro News & Record)
