The two men are Mr. William C. Friday, President of the University of North Carolina, on the left, and Chancellor John E. Thomas on the right. It is quite probable that this ceremony was the installation of Dr. Thomas as Chancellor of Appalachian rather than a commencement ceremony. In that case the time would be sometime about 1980 instead of about 1990.
