TO THE EDITOR:
Two years ago, I was a sophomore transfer student, wandering wide-eyed down South Road in a sea of Carolina blue. I sorted through a mound of emails from a capella groups and club sports, but only one group caught my eye. That was how I came to be a member of the Order of the Bell Tower.
As the University’s official student ambassadors, we are bound by one simple tie: our love for the University of North Carolina. Some of our members have steady jobs to pay for school. Others speak multiple languages fluently. By nature, we are a diverse body that seeks to best represent our University at the state, national and world levels.
This evening marks the end of our application period for the 2011-12 year. The application, available at obt.unc.edu, must be submitted online by 8 p.m. tonight. I wish you all the best — hark the sound!
