[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with a PP that many of the out-of-state students hung out together, and there seemed to be a lot of us in my dorm, for some reason.  While I enjoyed a lot about UNC, there were many times that I felt like a fish out of water culturally, and wished I had not turned down Duke, where many of my friends went.  At times, I felt that my UNC years were kind of a blip - a detour in my life.  But I wanted a different experience, and I got it, so in the end, I'm glad for it.[/quote]

This was my experience exactly ... I came from an NYC private equivalent to the Big 3 here, and I chose UNC because of the scholarship offer. As a previous poster stated, academically, I was probably at the top of my class coming in (in higher level courses and entirely placed out of some). I was also there during the academic scandal, and I agree that they really only coddled the athletes, the rest of us didn't receive that treatment, and the courses were actually decent/rigorous.
