Most people think of UNC students in one of two ways: one, UNC students are liberal hippies who will protest anything, or two, we're a bunch of fratty rich snobs that everyone hates.

There is a large population of students who are very "preppy" and that the school overall is very liberal.

That all the black kids hang with each other. That all the white kids get pissy drunk on Thursday nights. Thats really all that comes to mind for me.

when i applied to UNC five years ago, the biggest reservation i had was the frattiness of UNC's campus and the conservative nature of the student body. i went to a small high school for the arts and always identified as very liberal so the perception of a large, stereotypically fratty greek community really worried me.

Ashley
