No, UNC isn't perfect, but I'm giving it five stars on Yelp because, objectively speaking, it's…read morestill a great school and one of the biggest and most-recognized brands when it comes to universities (academics) and college athletics. There's no denying that. I have an interesting relationship with UNC. I was born and raised in High Point, North Carolina. My parents went to Wake, so I grew up a Demon Deacon fan. I was in the minority, starting in elementary school, because most of the other kids cheered for Carolina and Duke. In middle school, I became a member of the ABC Club - Anybody But Carolina. A lot of my high school friends and classmates went on to attend UNC. I went to Georgia Tech and settled in Atlanta. Fast-forward about 15 years and my wife matched into her ophthalmology residency at UNC. We moved away from Atlanta and spent the last four years of our lives in Chapel Hill, so my wife could slave away as a resident physician for UNC Health. For her, it was the most difficult and grueling years of her life. For me, I used it as an opportunity to explore Chapel Hill - mainly the businesses on and around Franklin Street - and go to Carolina men's basketball and football games when they played Georgia Tech. As expected, we beat Carolina in football, even when they were ranked and favored, and lost to Carolina in basketball. It was a lot of fun to attend the games at Kenan Stadium and the Dean Dome. I do have to mention I was at the last men's basketball game between Tech and Carolina on January 30, 2024 in Atlanta. Tech upset Carolina, then ranked No. 3 in the country, 74-73. UNC has a beautiful campus and the Town of Chapel Hill is a great college town. Generally speaking, in this regard, I think UNC is a model university for the classic American college experience. It seems to have it all and is more well rounded than, say, Georgia Tech, which is heavily research and engineering focused (not as typical a college experience, in my opinion). After spending four years in Chapel Hill and getting to know a part of the UNC community, mainly through my wife's program, I've softened on Carolina. I do admit I was very proud of my wife as soon as I learned that she matched into UNC's ophthalmology residency (Kittner Eye Center). Funny enough though, my wife still rooted for Georgia Tech over North Carolina and still does to this day. I successfully brainwashed her. Aside from certain things related to her work - much due to the broken US healthcare system, not necessarily specific to UNC or UNC Health - we leave UNC with nothing but good memories.

I highly recommend the Kumon system for reading and math. My child is twelve and has attended the…read moreKumon center at Farmington Woods in Cary for the past five years. She uses math and reading programs. The center is well run and the workers are friendly, helpful, and accommodating. Kumon is a very powerful method. However, the results are not instant. It is something you have to invest in over the long run. Kumon teaches disciple, perseverance, and grit along with math and reading. I have seen fantastic results. Recently my daughter took yearly academic testing and scored well. But one thing is particular just blew me away. She took a timed math test. There were 160 math problems and she completed 156 within the allotted time. She correctly did all 156 problems! This is amazing to me and I give Kumon the credit. My daughter is bright but has always struggled with focus and staying on track. She is basically an average kid and not a mathematical genius or profoundly gifted by any means. I think she still has some challenges in the area of focus but has definitely improved through the years. Kumon teaches the child to stop, focus, and work. The goal is to get into the correct mindset. This is not easy but with practice, the child can improve. We are far from the "perfect" Kumon family. My daughter sometimes fusses, has been known to lose her homework, and we occasionally take breaks for vacation and Holidays. And yet the system still works! That is incredible. Here are her scores for Grade 6 Month 4. Believe me - if she can do it your child can too. It just takes commitment over the long run. Every year her scores improve. Broad Achievement 99% Broad Reading 96% Broad Mathematics 99% Math Calculation Skills 99% Broad Written Language 96% Written Expression 83% Academic Skills 99% Academic Applications 95% Academic Fluency 95% In summary, we have had great results and I wish my older children had been able to start Kumon in the early grades as well. I highly recommend Kumon!

Since I had no medical insurance, I didn't feel like paying for out of pocket medical expenses. I stumbled across the website for the Wake Tech Dental Program. http://dentalhygiene.waketech.edu/clinic.php If you need your teeth cleaned, then if you are a student at Wake Tech, it is all free. And trust me, I have seen some grills at Wake Tech that needed some attention. And if you are not a student, then it will cost you a small fee of $20. That is not bad for some people that need that $1200 deep intensive cleaning because you have not ever been to a dentist in your life. (They did state that they have some people who need some serious TLC.) But it is good to only pay $20 for something you might not otherwise be able to afford. As far as the cleaning and treatment goes, they did the screening, complete work up, blood pressure check, x-rays and the whole 9 yards. The techs, even being students are very knowledgeable, and gentle. I will put it like this, my first year student tech was so gentle, I actually fell asleep in the chair, while she was in my mouth. The instructor thought it was funny, but I was tired. You don't have to worry about being left alone with some student that have never done any work on a soul. Because first they practice on each other, then they call in their family members and friends to practice on. So, if they didn't kill their family members, or friends, you have nothing to worry about. Now as far as the facilities for being a student, well, they are poor in comparison to the other campuses. The student lounge, while larger than the North campus, is also the cafe, which is also larger than the North campus, but they have nothing to eat except the vending machines. The library is quaint. The computers in the library I think were running Windows 98. Ok, maybe Windows 2000, but they were old, and very slow. Even trying to do some web based school homework on them was very difficult because the computers were not capable of running certain programs or software. The computer in the computer lab were a step up. As a student attending the campus, the issue parking deck cards, and you are supposed to let yourself in. As a student visit from another campus, security is supposed to let you in provided you have proper school ID. That does not always work, as security told me that they were not going to let me out one day since I didn't have a school ID. One quick phone call to the security chief at home fix that issue. So, here is the wrap up. I don't know what it is like to take classes there, but the students complain about the lack of food. I was a HUGE fan of the dental clinic that they run, and they do excellent work, so that earned them a bunch of stars. I did however remove a star because if I went over to that campus, and had to use the library services, or computer, the equipment was dilapidated. Many of the students there are high school that will graduate with their HS Diploma, and college AS at the same time, so you can't beat that. Almost having a BS by the time you finish high school.
