What I like most and least about Carolina

What I like most about Carolina is that there are so many opportunities to take advantage of. There are fifteen thousand undergraduate students here, and although I think it would be impossible to know each and everyone, just having that possibility out there is amazing.

On the social scene, there are so many options. Some people choose to have nights in with close friends, others go out (some more than they probably should) to clubs and bars and enjoy the nightlife. Others prefer to explore the area, venturing out to neighboring towns.

Carolina offers so many classes. I think you could take five classes each semester for one hundred years, and you still probably wouldn’t have taken all the classes the University has to offer.

After you graduate from Carolina and leave Chapel Hill, although we all wish we could stay, you have so many opportunities, whether they involve jobs, more education, or a complete adventure! Here at Carolina there are so many doors open for you to explore. Come through the first door and come visit!

What I like least about Carolina, other than that I have to leave in about two years, is that we are all so reliant on technology. On the rare occasion that the internet doesn’t work, a visitor might think we were all completely insane, as everyone seems so disconnected from everything. Because of technology malfunctions, I have had a professor or two cancel class. Although I’m not complaining, in my opinion it’s kind of sad that so much importance is placed on email and iPods that when we are forced to go without while the server is fixed or replacement iPods are shipped, we can be cranky without seeming ungrateful. I mean, we are in Chapel Hill, affectionately called “The Southern Part of Heaven.”
