For five days in April, fifteen photojournalism students from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill explored the varied culture of Highlands, NC, through their own lenses. Students worked daily with seasoned editors brought in from various newspapers in the Southeast. The results are a product of the 2005 Carolina Photojournalism Workshop.
