Coming off the heels of last weekend’s snow/sleet/ice mix, UNC-Chapel Hill received more winter weather this weekend. This time Tar Heels had pure snow to enjoy. With the always beautiful Carolina campus covered in white, students braved frigid temperatures and did everything from take pictures at the Old Well to play football, build (tiny) snowmen and go sledding. Meanwhile, Carolina’s hardworking staff from various units made sure campus remained safe for all.
