We Celebrate Carolina

I'm not going to lie... it hurt a little on Saturday when Carolina was exterminated by Kansas, but I think this ad in the New York times puts things into prospective. Carolina is a great place to be on and off the court. Sometimes we put too much focus on a single game and lose sight of the other things that are going on at UNC.

"As the nation's first public university, Carolina has paved the way for a brighter future for more than 200 years. Dr. Oliver Smithies recently won the Nobel Prize for his pioneering research that helped lay the foundation for lifesaving medical breakthroughs. Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine ranked us the No. 1 best value in American public higher education for the seventh consecutive time. Next month, we will graduate our first class of students in the Carolina Covenant, a national model for providing love-income students with a debt-free education. And on the court, our men's and women's basketball teams had great seasons that made us proud. At the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, we have a lot to cheer about."
