With 28,000 undergraduate students, UNC Charlotte is rapidly growing. While the college experience is different for everyone, if you're a student at UNCC, there are some things you know to be true about the university.

1. Parking is actually ridiculous.

Chances are, you've probably just driven home and skipped class at some point because you couldn't find a parking spot.

2. A goose has tried to pick a fight with you.

They aren't in your way, you're in their way.


3. Every day is leg day.

Because there are stairs or hills every way you look.


4. The dining halls have personally victimized you.

The food is a little on the iffy side.


5. You've spent countless hours at Club Atkins.

And finding a place to sit during finals week might be harder than finding a parking spot.


6. There's been a class where you never understood the professor.

What language are you actually speaking?


7. You've avoided going out because you don't want to drive down North Tryon.

You might just be going a mile down the road, but chances are, it'll take you a good 30 minutes.


8. You wanted Bojangles for lunch, but they ran out of chicken.

I'm confused...isn't that all you serve?


9. There's construction all over.

The University of Never-Ceasing Construction...UNCC.


10. You're confused on how they decide to cancel class in the winter.

Chance of snow? Classes canceled. Ice all over the roads? Classes are still on.


11. You couldn't find a room in Colvard.

Who thought this was a good floor plan?


12. You've TRIED to get coffee at Starbucks or Peet's.

But the line was way too long.


13. Registration brings on more stress than finals.

If only there were enough classes for all the students...


However, we all still love our school, and wouldn't have it any other way.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
