The University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill

Date: Mar 07 2003
Major: Psychology (This Major's Salary over time)
UNC provided a wonderful education for me. I started out as a Biology major (as did practically everyone) and decided to change to Psychology when I discovered I just didn't want to do Bio for a living. I am now a grad student at another state university, and the differences are enormous! UNC provides up-to-date technology and services for students. If you don't want to be considered a "number" and aren't willing to do something about that, then UNC is not for you. But, if you're willing to drop an email to your prof or TA, and meet other students, and simply open a door for someone or offer directions to a visitor, then you'll do JUST FINE at UNC. I never went anywhere where I didn't see someone I knew (and I'm shy) and the sense of pride and loyalty on that campus is amazing. If you're serious about your education (as you SHOULD be, if you got into Carolina) then your professors will respect you, help you, and best of all, expect the best out of you. Carolina students are cream of the crop… but occasionally bad apples get in. Those who hate UNC are the ones who were challenged and failed to rise.
