UNCG is an amazing campus filled with a diverse student population, but most students do experience many of the same things while attending this university. Here are the top 10!

1. You've left an apple for Minerva.

Legend has it, taking a bite out of an apple and leaving it at Minerva's feet will bring good luck for any exam.

2. You've braved the caf on Fried Chicken Wednesday.

3. You've never walked under the clock tower.

Unless you've already graduated, or you don't plan on graduating any time soon....

4. You've swung on Minerva's swings.

5. You've pulled an all nighter at Club Jackson.

6. You've tried a Black and Tan from Tate St Coffee

Anyone who goes to UNCG knows what's up. Tate Street Coffee House is BOMB and their black and tan is their most classic drink!

7. Guy Sanders is your homeboy

UNCG HRL

Guy Sanders has without a doubt been in your email 60000000 times since even before you even picked out the dorm you wanted. He is the OG HRL guy with all the deets on campus living.

8. You've ridden a Limebike, Limescooter, or Bird.

9. You or someone you know has jumped in, put bubbles in, or sigh... canoed in the fountain.

10. You've eaten at YumYums.

Yum Yum's Better Ice Cream is a Greensboro Landmark, and it is right in the center of the UNCG campus. You're not a true Spartan if you've never been to Yum Yum's!

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
