UNC Charlotte may become the University of Charlotte! What do you think?
Some students say they don’t like getting confused with UNC in Chapel Hill. Here is what WBTV is reporting:
The First 49, a grassroots organization of Charlotte 49er fans and alumni, sent WBTV the following statement regarding a potential name change:
Our aspiration is not so much about dropping UNC but rather adopting University of Charlotte. This would strengthen our brand in recognition of Charlotte’s growth into world-class city, alleviate confusion and better allow us to fulfill our mission as the NC’s urban research institute.
#BREAKING Per a member of the @unccharlotte Student Government Association - the student body will be polled regarding their thoughts on a name change next month. https://t.co/OUiwvC47GQ
