Introduction
Chapel Hill is a college town – it’s pretty much all students and some adults live here but you don’t really see them around – the campus is like huge and Franklin Street is basically a part of the campus and like I lived on Campus for two years and I barely went off campus and I didn’t even notice because UNC is so big that you don’t even really need to go anywhere in the town of Chapel Hill.

Campus Life and Social Life
It’s a big school, close to14,000 or something are there were when I came in and you know, the classes are a good size – when you get into more concentrated areas – the classes get smaller and you see people around it seems like a small school – but there are a lot of people here you could never know everybody. The Carolina campus is gorgeous – it’s really full of old trees and old brick buildings and buildings from – you know its like one of the United States like first Public College so a lot of old stuff like classic looking – it’s really pretty.

Academics
The social life at Carolina is pretty big – I was told when I first came here not to take really hard classes your first semester just concentrate on making friends and so that’s what I did and you know there’s always a party to go to and there’s always parties in the dorms and once I got older off campus there were parties off campus too and now that I’m 21 I can go to bars.I think it’s a really big drinking scene at Carolina which you know can be pretty good for some people and not good for others – but there’s also like clubs and stuff that people join and things like that.

Student Body
Basketball is a big sport around here – my boyfriend is super into it I had never been to a game until my senior year – I went to the Duke game, our rival is Duke, and we won against them this year and then we won the national championship this year – so it was a really big deal and afterwards everybody went up to Franklin Street and like there was like 40,000 people and they set these fires and I guess it was a good time.

In Closing...
There are a lot of clubs and organizations through the campus – I’m not a member of any of them but I do know people who are. There’s one really cool club called Q-AB, which is like a creative organization and they set up these like fun things to do in the pit which is like the place where people congregate – and lots of other Fraternities and Sororities, different clubs for your major and stuff like that.
