TO THE EDITOR:
Watching the new UNC television ad over the past few weeks has left me confused. Is this the best UNC has to offer? I understand the University’s placed importance on study abroad programs and world issues. In fact, I desire to study abroad in the near future. But students can get this international experience at nearly every college across the country. I know this is not what attracted me to call Chapel Hill my home for four years.
Let’s ask ourselves what sets this great school apart. The beautiful campus? The history? The sports? The diverse student body? The affordability? All sound like solid answers to me. However, not a single one of these great, attractive attributes were incorporated into the ad. Let’s give a better image of ourselves to the world.
