TO THE EDITOR:
Almost four years ago, I came to UNC as an out-of-state student. I was excited to become a Tar Heel for my four years, but didn’t really know what this meant.
I had no idea that the Carolina community has a way about it that takes you in, regardless of your background, and never really lets you go.
I am continually impressed and amazed by the people around me and am constantly pushed to be better. For me, this is the mark of a great University.
This Thanksgiving, I am thankful that my closet is predominantly one color: Carolina blue.
I am thankful that I can turn on ESPN and watch my classmates compete at an extraordinary level across so many sports.
I am thankful that there are so many students on this campus who, in their own way, are making this world a better place.
I am thankful for the professors and administrators who have come back to the Southern part of heaven, to invest in the future.
And more than anything, I am thankful that even after next semester, I will still be a member of one of the best families in the world and I know that this will never change.
Together, we truly are Carolina. Thank you.
