Have you surveyed the student body? It's one of those lazy statements like "welfare recipients are ruining this country" or "Republicans are a bunch of greedy corporate pigs". As to the obsession with UNC, I doubt that UNC Charlotte fans are any more obsessed or delusional than the anyone else. Some just don't buy that UNC can do no wrong. If you want to see obsession with Carolina you need look no further than the local sports pages. My point which I. guess was not obvious to you, is that more than one school can do things the right way. That seems simple enough to me.

Which is an embarrassing claim since your own students don't give a damn about your program. Nevertheless, fan day for the general public? Either way, UNCC's turnout was poor to pedestrian...or vice versa. And if no other programs detract from UNCC, maybe the UNCC dorks obsession with UNC is unmerited? A tad, pathetic?

A 3.0 gpa on a scale of 0-4 is not average. That would be 2.0. I guess your math grade was way below average. BTW, nobody said UNC Charlotte was the only school that runs a good athletic program, just that it is one of the ones that do. I know this is an advanced concept for you. but life is not always a zero sum game.

Since the last I checked the objective of the university is education, I would not classify that as embarrassing. In addition, our athletes are expected to do a good amount of community work and are taught values we hope will serve them well in later life. Of course, you probably mean that we are embarrassing because we don't get people with the physical abilities that, for example, Chapel Hill, does. We can't control that since they have about a century and a half head start on us.
