11 Ways The UNC Meme Page On Facebook Can Actually Teach A Few Things And Has Enlightened Me
Melanie Irizarry

Carol Folt's $4.25B Memorial Meme Stash (UNC) is UNC's largest meme community, clocking in at above 14,000 members. However, the page is good for more than laughs: through my time scrolling Facebook, I've learned some pretty real life stuff because of this meme page. Here's 11 thing I've learned about through this glorious Facebook group.

1. Phillips flooded.

Meredith Norman

Phillips, I'll never let you go.

2. Weeknight parking passes are going to be a thing.

Harrison Liu

RIP to the free, convenient weeknight parking.

3. What pollen actually looks like!!!

Ryan Chan

Who knew?

4. This red ball that was moving around campus

Madelyn Smith

Why see it first in real life when you can see it in a meme first?

5. Duke's research scandal

Maddie Carney

The devil is a lie and so is Dook.

6. Carol Folt going to USC!

Tanner Fadero

Aunt Becky scandal > racist statue scandal ????

7. Bell Tower Climb fast pass/caste system

Julia Gallagher

Hark the Sound.

8. Senior bar golf???

Olivia Park

So Senior Bar Golf is totally a thing that I had just never heard of before — you guessed it — I saw it on the meme page.

9. The spider statue.

Peggy Mullin

What better way is there to learn that UNC's been raided by spiders?

None. There are none.

10. Cherie Berry is retiring :(

Nathan Collier

And now there is an elevator-shaped void in all of our hearts, and a Cherie-shaped void in all of our elevators.

11. Love is ALIVE at UNC

Corbin Jones

And in this case, it comes in the form of an 8-legged beauty.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
