Remember the days when the Toys ‘R Us catalog would come in the mail, and you’d mark down everything you wanted for Christmas? And if you couldn’t live without it, you’d put a star beside it, making sure your parents knew exactly what you wanted?
(No? Just me? Oh ...)
The stars and marks in the toy catalog would then be transferred over to the list and sent to the North Pole for Santa Claus.
Naturally, these lists had the latest gizmos and gadgets, fashion trends and probably a puppy or two.
But, if you were to make a list today it would probably look a little different than the ones you made as a kid.
With finals approaching, many students haven’t had time to make a Christmas list, but they know what they’d ask UNC for if they could.
Taylor Darrow, junior, had no hesitation when she said she’d ask UNC for a 4.0 this Christmas.
This seems like it would be at the top of every student’s list, but first-year Alexandra Myers said she’d ask for free tuition for Christmas.
