The University of North Carolina at Charlotte is such an amazing school, and I love going to school here. On the other hand, there are definitely some things that I think should be changed or some things that I have questions about. I love this school, but there are just some things that confuse me.
1. Why is there not more parking?
Why do we pay $450 and not have anywhere to park? If you have class from 9:30-1:45 good luck finding a spot. I can not tell you how many times I have had to pay to park in the visitor lots just to make it to class on time. Why I have to pay more on top of my parking pass just to go to class I have no clue. While driving around like sharks trying to find a parking spot, the thought of just skipping class begins to creep into your mind. There are so many times that the hunt for a parking spot just is not worth and food is way more important. We need more parking so we do not have to have the hunger games play out in the parking lot every day. This school is mostly commuters, so I do not see how we do not have more spaces.
2. Will the construction ever end?
I know that construction has become kind of a regular thing on college campuses these days. At UNCC, there is road construction, resident hall construction, and light rail construction just to name a few. It seems like everywhere you look there is another orange cone or dump truck. I just wanna know if our campus will ever be construction-free?
3. Why is there only one Starbucks on campus?
Coffee is the driving force behind all college students. We need the caffeine to make it through a whole day of classes and studying. I just do not understand why there is only one Starbucks and it is not near half of the academic buildings. We have other coffee shops, but they are not the same. We have the swipes and we want to spend them on Starbucks. We need more!
4. Why do geese attack us?
I think this question speaks for itself. We should never have to worry about walking on the sidewalks. The geese at UNCC will honestly chase you if you walk past them. They also poop all over the sidewalk just to add on to it.
5. How do you find the secret tunnel?
We all know it exists, so why don't you just spill the beans and tell us where it is?
