Students and officials from the University of North Carolina, North Carolina State University and Duke University came together Wednesday — setting aside some of the most intense college rivalries — for a vigil in honor of the Chapel Hill shooting victims.
Deah Barakat, a dentistry student at UNC-Chapel Hill; his wife, Yusor Abu-Salha, who was planning to enter the same dental studies program; and her sister, Razan Abu-Salha, an NCSU undergrad, were killed Tuesday.
“We want the legacy of these three wonderful students to be a legacy of hope and understanding,” said UNC-Chapel Hill Chancellor Carol Folt at the event.
