What is life like at UNC?

<p>Like the title says...How is the overall experience at UNC? Here's a few questions to anyone who goes to UNC (or went there):</p>

<p>Does the student body seem generally intelligent?
Do the majority of students have a strong work ethic?
How is the social life there?
What do people do on the weekends mostly?
How's dorm life/the cafeteria food?</p>

<p>Okay...I'll see if I can even get answers to those first. Thanks :)</p>

<p>most of the student body is pretty intelligent, every once in awhile you might find someone and think to yourself "how did this guy get in here"</p>

<p>student body has a pretty good work ethic, you can always find people studying or working somewhere on campus on any day of the week, even on a friday night.</p>

<p>social life is what you make it, franklin street can be fun but it gets old, the student union shows free movies on the weekends, some people go eat or see movies on franklin street, there's always a party.</p>

<p>Food's good, I prefer chase over lenior, but they're both good. It sucks that they're tearing chase down. I'm gonna miss it. the dining halls are kinda like an all you can eat buffet where you get a pretty good selection.</p>

<p>Dorm life depends on the dorm you live in. South campus is more acitive and can be more fun.</p>

<p>Overall I love going here and I haven't met anyone here that doesn't enjoy going here.</p>

<p>Nice, thanks for the reply cadet. I have heard that construction is pretty bad on campus right now, is that true?</p>

<p>there's a lot of construction, but its not a problem. I've never had a problem getting anywhere due to construction projects.</p>

<p>Any other comments from anyone about pros and cons of the overall experience at UNC?</p>

<p>Is there a good party life?</p>

<p>Does the student body seem generally intelligent? Overall, yes.. There are definitely some people who you're just like how are you in college? But there's also some REALLY smart people here too. overall though people are pretty smart.
Do the majority of students have a strong work ethic? yep, people study a lot and do work, not like psycho all the time though..
How is the social life there? fun! lots of different groups and things to do
What do people do on the weekends mostly? party, go to franklin street, hang out
How's dorm life/the cafeteria food? dorm life is fun, especially if you get a good suite! lenoir isn't too bad, chase is disgusting in my opinion! you smell weird after you go there and the food is sketch! lol</p>

<p>anyway, if you're considering UNC you should really look into it! everyone i know loves it here... i'll post more later, just thought i would real quick! :) have a great day!</p>

<p>I've read some things that the student body is not very friendly mainly because of the large difference in academic quality between in state and out of state students. Is this true, or do you find most people to be very open and friendly?</p>

<p>Nooo, that's not true at all! The student body is <em>SO</em> friendly!! There is a big diff between the quality of in state and out of state students, but it's not something you really notice, especially cause most of your interactions and friendships aren't over like schoolwork and stuff.. People are really open and friendly at unc:)</p>
