Meet Samuel Eutimio
Eutimio, who will graduate with a B.S.B.A. with a joint concentration in finance and accounting from Belk College of Business, will be the bell ringer at his commencement ceremony on Saturday, Dec. 18. This honorable tradition recognizes students who have demonstrated exemplary 49er spirit. The three selected bell ringers for December's commencement ceremonies are outstanding representatives of UNC Charlotte and the resilient spirit of our University. Meet the third December bell ringer next week!
Every Friday we will introduce a Niner. Have a suggestion on who we should highlight next? Email us at ninerinsider.uncc.edu.
