Does Honors Make a Difference?

<p>cloying, did you live in the Cobb dorm? i was thinking about living there, but then someone at UNC said said i should reconsider because the students who choose cobb were extremely intense, elitist (!), neurotic, non-social (her words, not mine!). and she said cobb was so far off from other dorms i wouldn’t meet a lot of people. and that the area was deserted and dangerous at night, with no bus service.</p>

<p>could you please tell me about life in cobb? i was planning on being there bc i was going to request an Honors roommate, and i heard they automatically stuck all the Honors kids (who didn’t already choose a specific roomate) there. basically i am very social, but want to avoid an animal house scene, and i’ve heard from others that south campus can be crazy and very hard to focus on academics in. </p>

<p>are there dorms on south campus where more honors students tend to live? or do i not have a choice if i don’t know a specific honors student i want to room with anyway, they’ll just stick me in cobb anyway?</p>

<p>i really am hoping to meet lots of new people, and get to know LOTS of people at UNC…will cobb hinder that? what do i do if i am more interested in book and people than bottles? where is the best dorm for me?</p>
