At UNC, Wolfe was an active contributor to campus life, serving as an editor for The Tar Heel, the university's student newspaper, and winning the Worth Prize for Philosophy with his essay titled "The Crisis in Industry." Graduating in 1920, he sought to further his education by entering Harvard University's Graduate School for Arts and Sciences, aiming to become a professional playwright. Wolfe's time at Harvard, particularly in the influential 47 Workshop, helped shape his literary style, preparing him for the tumultuous journey ahead in New York City, where he ultimately found his voice as one of America's leading novelists.
