“Cons: I’ve met some, quite frankly, dumb students who tend to be from rural areas… however, most people I’ve met here by far are quite smart. I’ve heard some people complain about some of things ArtemisDea mentioned but a lot of those points are subjective. However, I take exception to UNC being called “not very challenging”… I, and most of the people I know, have worked very hard to achieve decent grades at UNC… all of my classes have required quite a bit of work.”

I suspect it depends on your major as to whether or not school is challenging. I had some frat buddies that struggled when they were business majors. When they changed to planning they made the Dean’s List. I just don’t see anyone attending UNC being dumb. Some kids just aren’t as worldly, but if you listen to them you might learn something. My son is not from the farm, but Sanford is not Raleigh. He’s got strong views on politics, sports, etc.
