"As the Carolina Inn celebrates its centennial year, a writer reflects on the stately hotel's long history as " The university's living room." A passion project of John Sprunt Hill, an 1889 alumnus of U.N.C., the inn was built and donated by the Hill family with the stipulation that profits after care and upkeep of the facility would go to the Wilson Library and in particular the North Carolina Collection. The first renovation of the facility occurred in the mid-1960s and in 1993, a much larger renovation occurred and was completed in 1995.
