Spotlight on...

We have been getting really bad with the spotlight on post so im bringing it back this week. Sorry, times have just been so busy. You have all got to understand, were just livin the college life here!! This trip takes us up to the state of North Carolina and the UNC tarheel country...




Located at Chapel Hill, the University of North Carolina is one of the oldest schools you will find. (Est. in 1789)North Carolina is one of the best looking campus you will ever find. Most of the buildings are brick and the foliage is amazing. ok enough with that stuff. They are big into baby blue, Michael Jordan, and college basketball. With almost 20,000 undergrads its not too big but big enough to have a huge fan base and following. They are one of the top basketball teams year in year out. (makes me mad seeing as I am a Maryland fan) Every game in the Dean Smith center is exciting. There other athletic programs are nothing to shake a stick at either. As a member of the ACC conference, they usually hold their own. Here is a list of their most notable sports alumni:
include Michael Jordan, Mia Hamm, Davis Love III, Eddie Pope, Roy Williams, B.J. Surhoff, Kristine Lilly, Jeff Reed, Andrew Miller, Daniel Bard, Marion Jones, Ivory Latta, Lawrence Taylor, Julius Peppers, Alge Crumpler, Willie Parker , Brian Simmons, Rasheed Wallace, Vince Carter, Nick Monroe, Antwan Jamison, Shalane Flanagan, and Dré Bly. Sounds like a group of winners, well except for Marion Jones and her steroids.
One of the biggest traditions on the campus is on Halloween. Students from all other school in North Carolina come to the UNC campus to fill the streets for partying. They estimate that 80,000 students are there annually.
Somehow while searching the history of UNC, I came across some of their hottest ladies...hmm how did that happen.
