Today is my final production at @mypbsnc with #ncstrive covering #military and #veteran #students on campus. Thank you PBSNC for allowing me to grow and create amazing work for the people of #northcarolina. https://t.co/wIxCAxgZ5P

I will be deactivating this account on May 7 as I will be leaving PBSNC for a new position outside of state government. Thank you all for supporting our veterans of NC and the work that I have done over the past 17+ years at UNC-TV/PBSNC.

Jim Dyer served in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War before returning home to #NC to raise his family. Dyer now lives in Wake Forest—and he bears a striking resemblance to old St. Nick. @UNCTVJeff joined Jim and Santa to hear their story of friendship. https://t.co/vI7HKvMZIP
