The only thing I signed on UNC Signing Day was a Cold Stone receipt

People describe candidate Bradley Opere as a great friend, student, soccer player and dancer. And that's why they think he'd be a good student body president. As an experiment, I asked around the office tonight. If I were to run for SBP, this is how my coworkers would describe me:

"If Bradley's a good player, I'd describe Danny as a good participant."

"He's good at tweeting."

"Um. Uhhhh. Danny is a great … can we not do this?"

— Danny

QUICK HITS

• People are finally acknowledging that textbook prices are getting out of hand, with students spending about $3 billion a year.
• An updated snow day policy means UNC employees have to take leave without pay if they can't work under Condition 2. If they want to make up the lost time, they have 90 days to do it.
• Housing officials are planning follow-up programs after someone tore down and threw away an RA's Black Lives Matter poster in Granville Towers.
• UNC football's signing day just landed 26 players, the most Coach Larry Fedora has seen since coming on with the Heels.

IN CAMPUS ELECTIONS

Student body presidential candidate Bradley Opere will be continuing his photo campaign if you need a new profile picture. Self-described dark horse John Taylor hopes to unite the community of UNC. And Charlotte heartthrob Wilson Sink wants all of us to find our homes in Chapel Hill.

IN LEGAL NEWS

About 60 people sentenced to life in prison in North Carolina are getting a chance to challenge their sentences. If you were a juvenile convicted of first degree murder between 1994 and 2012, you only had one sentencing option: life in prison without parole. But a recent Supreme Court ruling is in the process of changing that.

IN OUR OPINION

Stop downplaying your major just because you aren't pre-med. You chose your major because you love it, and there's no shame in it. Yeah, orgo is hard. But so is reading 100 pages a night or working six hours a night at a newspaper on top of taking classes.

If you're a fellow sport ignoramus, we can help you choose who to root for in the Super Bowl. If you decide to take a break from watching Puppy Bowl XII to watch Budweiser commercials or Lady Gaga sing the national anthem, you should probably know who to cheer for if the game accidentally comes back on. I'll be on team "Cam Newton's kind eyes."
