<p>Have to again agree 100% with cloying 
…although my son did attend UNC because of the Morehead, it really didn’t have much, if any, impact on his day-to-day campus activities and certainly not on his classroom experience at UNC or his Chapel Hill experience overall.</p>
<p>Most people aren’t even aware of who the Moreheads are because they just don’t “wear it on their sleeves”…there are no tee shirts or car window stickers to announce their Morehead status and it’s certainly not something they talk or brag about, in fact, quite the opposite. He had friends as late as junior year who were unaware of it.</p>
<p>His circle of friends was wide but he honestly had more non Moreheads in his close/inner circle of friends. Interestingly, several of his close friends were people he met at Finalist weekend that didn’t win…not winning the award certainly didn’t lessen their being brilliant, amazing people. </p>
<p>He absolutely loved his time at UNC and in Chapel Hill and has returned often. As I have already said, he’s planning to apply to both UNC and Duke for his residency.</p>
<p>Without trying to sound to weird, UNC is a very special place and one that for most, is difficult to leave.</p>
<p>If she truly loved her time there, not having a “name” scholarship isn’t going to impact her daily Carolina experience at all.</p>
