Monday, October 25, 2021

Attention. All. Niners. It's time to celebrate all things Charlotte. Grab your spirit wear and get ready to paint the city green during the Inaugural Niner Nation Week!

There will be several opportunities to show your love for our University, from a pep rally in Uptown on Monday, Nov. 1 at 11:30 a.m. to the Homecoming football game on Saturday, Nov. 6 at 3:30 p.m.

“Niner Nation Week is the perfect time to display your Charlotte pride,” said Chancellor Sharon L. Gaber. “With our recent invitation to the American Athletic Conference, it is a fitting time to celebrate our current success and look forward to our future as a university on the move. I hope Niners everywhere will join us in person or in spirit for this exciting week."
