| Thank you all for your replies. A picture is worth a thousand words, so I think seeing the campus and hopefully talking to students who attend there, and sitting in on a history class will really help to give d a good view of what UNC is really like.
some of the things we are hoping/planning to do are:
1. take a tour, esp seeing the lirary, dorm, cafe, classroom, etc
2. sit in a class, preferably history
3. view the surounding area
4. talk to someone in the history program
5.talk to someone in the honors program |
