1. Keith Belton, Jr., Nashville, TN—

“The academic opportunity at UNC
greatly exceeded the opportunities at
the predominantly Black institutions I
was considering.”
2. Rena Tate, Fr., Charlotte, NC
Criminal Justice
“I thought that UNC would be a
challenge. ”
3. Marcus Davis, Fr., Asheboro,
NC—Accounting
“Because of the academic reputation,
business school, and the size. ”
4. Tonya Martin, Soph., Winston-
Salem, NC—Speech & Communica
tions
“Because you have more advantages
at a White university.”
5. Kim Holmes, Sr., Durham, NC—
Interdisciplinary Studies
“Being a Black woman in a White
society I need to make White connec
tions and to learn how to get along
with White people. ”
6. Derrick Middleton, Fr., Kinston,
NC—Biology & Pre-Dental
“My first choice was Howard but
Carolina was closer and would also
give me a better background for
Dental School. We have to have some
one who will prove that Blacks can
make it at a predominantly White
university. ”
7. Stacy Alston, Soph., Charlotte,
NC—Dental Hygiene
“Academic-wise, it’s a pretigious insti
tution. I’d rather have a mixed atmos
phere. ”
8. LeChelle Wilson, Jr., Atlanta, GA
—Medical Technology
“It’s just where I always wanted to
come.”
9. Jimmy Mitchell, Jr., Clarkton, NC
