Carissa Stancer, PRA’s World Language Department Chair, said PRA students competed at the event and won a few awards in 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2019.
“This was PRA’s first year back since the pandemic canceled the event for a couple of years. We are so proud to have so many students win awards this year,” Stancer said.
UNC’s World Language Day competition is the largest and longest running competition of its kind in the United States, having been held for more than 50 years.
