Thousands Mourn UNC Shooting Victim

More than 5,000 people gathered to hear the University of North Carolina chancellor commemorate Eve Carson, the school's student body president, who was shot and killed Wednesday, the Daily Tar Heel reports. "This university needs an enormous group hug," he said. "It's OK to cry." Later in the evening, up to 3,000 assembled for a candlelight vigil.

UNC's board of trustees has pledged $25,000 as a reward for information in the case, while state flags on campus have been flown at half-staff since Thursday. Counselors from UNC and Duke have been provided for grieving students. Police still have no suspects and believe the shooting was a random attack.
