<p>This sounds like an unfair assessment of UNC to me (and I am of course a major W & M fan). This thread is several months old and the various merits of both schools were debated fairly extensively. The OP decided on UNC, and should be a happy freshman there now. No one in the previous discussion came close to suggesting that the classes at UNC were “fairly easy,” or that you’d need to use binocs to see your profs. I don’t have time right now to look into how many UNC classes have more than 500 students, but I can’t imagine there are “many.”</p>
<p>There are many ways of looking at college sports. Yes, UNC is an athletic powerhouse and a student who likes to play will be out of luck if not a recruited athlete (unless they’d like to do intramurals). But they can see some great college sports at UNC. And they can see some great sports at W & M, as well, which usually provides some very exciting games in a variety of sports.</p>
