Maybe attitudes like this....... is WHY......the Charlotte community will [B]not [/B]embrace UNCC.Could it be the entire town is tired of hearing UNCC students WHINE about everything? :weep:
Could it be that Western Carolina is truly the most irrelevant school in the state and no one on this board cares what anyone from there thinks?

FTW.
I forgot they even existed until that joker posted here. I NEVER hear anything about them.
[QUOTE=919R;410216]While it may seem insignificant at first glance, I think it actually COULD be a real catalyst for our university making a connection (no pun intended) to the city of Charlotte. Think about it, anytime someone hears or says the phrase “green line” they will make a mental “link” to our school/colors. Over time, its these sort of little things that stay in the backs of people’s minds and slowly bring our university more into their daily lives. These small connections over years/decades will have an effect on our public perception and support, etc. IMO.[/QUOTE]
Chicago’s Purple Line L Train goes to Northwestern, the Red Line passes UC and Loyola.
It’s obvious as to why this article was written. Take a look at where Mary Newsom was educated. Why would she want anything positive to happen for the University of Charlotte?

Wait, wait, she went to Harvard and writes for the Observer? Talk about wasting a Harvard education.

I care about Western Carolina.
Any word on what was said at the meeting the article was about?
They completely shot down the Green Line, as expected… but will consider the change from Purple to Red Line. BULL***
Remember the City of Charlotte has ONLY 1 vote on this committee while the tiny towns of Huntersville, Davidson & Mooresville account for three. This is the main reason the Commuter line will be built before the Northeast Extension!

Here’s the Observer report:
http://www.charlotteobserver.com/local/story/749220.html
Transit officials see redCATS officials Wednesday night also discussed with the Metropolitan Transit Commission the possibility of changing the color of two planned rail lines.
It has been proposed to change the color of the planned north corridor commuter rail line – now purple – to red. That would be a nod to Davidson College.
In addition, officials at UNCCharlotte had discussed changing the color of the Lynx extension – now planned as blue – to green. Green is the primary color of UNCCharlotte.
It’s unlikely the MTC will vote to change the Lynx extension to green. CATS officials said the Lynx should be one color, and recommended against having a line that was half blue and half green. If the entire line’s color were changed, it would cost between $200,000 and $500,000 to change existing signs.
The MTC decided to seek more public input before changing the color of the purple line to red.
The MTC also voted to recommend that the General Assembly include Mecklenburg in a bill that would allow it to raise an additional half-cent sales tax for mass transit.
