2. The precious Jimmy Johns delivery person who always saves the day.

Trying to survive all-nighters and rainy weather, it can be hard to make the trek to Rams Head or Lenoir. Thankfully, we have the hard working delivery bike rider speeding around campus saving one lazy, hungry student at a time.

 

3. The best basketball players in the NCAA.

Sports and Carolina Blue go hand in hand. These Tar Heels may slay it on the court, but here on campus they get their Chick-Fil-A from BOL like everyone else.

4. Carol Folt

The real campus celebrity, it is always a treat take a selfie with our proud leader on the way to class.

5. The activists of the day.

UNC is known for its strong liberal atmosphere. So, it is not surprising to come across various forms protesters or activists in the quad who are eager for you to sign their petition.

6. Northerners who refuse to wear pants.

7. Not so good ‘ole Pit Preacher Gary

Gary can often be found in the quad or in the pit with his infamous sign. The only perk of Gary is the great Halloween costumes he inspires.

It is literally impossible their outreach team, no matter how hard you try (it’s one of the reasons they are one of the biggest charities on campus)

Thanks to Professor Kris Jordan, to programming has never been more entertaining and engaging. In only a span of a year, it is hard to not see a laptop without COMP 110’s iconic sticker that shows they successfully finished a general education class.
