What a miserable event. Clinton gave a good speech but the speakers
before he came out were just plain horrible. The event was planned
great on the universities end, however the campaign had no clue when
Clinton was coming and the guy with the t-shirts who started everything
off was so obnoxious I almost left.
Everyone thought they were at UNCCH. Susan Burgess, from our own city council, even thought so! How disappointing.
The representative from the Virgin Islands did alright bringing up the
49ers but then she said “let’s give a big warm UNC welcome” and “go
UNC”.
But then again, I can’t blame them… to anyone not associated with the
university we will always be UNC at Charlotte (which technically is our
name). Even worse is what Anderson Cooper said a few weeks ago: UNC in
Charlotte.
I’m just glad no one “wished us luck in the Final Four”.
Brian Carlton from the UTimes just put up some great commentary which echoes my sentiments.
