Many UNC students are currently debating where to live next year as apartment and housing leases are being signed every day. Staff writer Michelle Dixon asked students: what’s the best part of living off campus?
Christine South
Senior linguistics major
“I think my favorite part is having a kitchen. I lived in Ruffin, and the kitchen was terrible and I’m really big on cooking. I saved money on grocery shopping — it’s way cheaper than a meal plan. It gives you independence to decide what you want and when you want to eat it.”
Sarah Marr
Senior nursing major
“I like living off campus because it feels more like a home, it feels more permanent than living in a dorm. A dorm is a very temporary lifestyle.”
