Experiencing History
James Cates Scholars learn history by walking where it happened, listening to those who lived it, and engaging directly with the people and places that shaped our nation. From Chapel Hill to the Deep South, each journey gives scholars the chance to ask questions, build relationships, and experience history beyond the classroom.
