Let me preface: Back in the day, I worked for a publication on UNC's campus that was not the DTH…read more We did not compete with the DTH (we had no desire to, and filled a very different niche), but in the interest of full disclosure, there it is. That being said, the DTH is not a good newspaper. I'm fully aware of the awards it wins and the reputation for excellence it has, which leads me to question the standards that other college newspapers hold themselves to. Are they even printed on paper? Are they using the English language? Do their editors hold children hostage at gunpoint at every budget meeting? What paltry requirements must there be for a college newspaper that the DT-bleeding-H gets five-star reviews and annual awards? Most upsetting is the irrelevance of the stories. One gets the impression that these are not journalists actually trying to convey the news, but children making mountains out of their playground politics, dressing them up with official-sounding rhetoric and pompous bylines. Bicycle pumps do not concern me, and I am already well-aware of the endless tuition increases. Tell me something useful. The staff seems terribly prejudiced, as well. The DTH is something of a magic eye puzzle; if you look at it real hard and unfocus your eyes, you can see the petty, ill-thought-out agendas that the writers and editors curl up with at night to make the loneliness burn just a little bit less. If you're going to report on trivialities, at least make them unbiased trivialities. The best things about the DTH are the classified pages and the crossword puzzle, which alone accounts for 77% of all DTH reader interest. Also (to be fair), there is occasionally something mentioned that's actually worth thinking about, usually about one story per week. Other than that, you can get your daily dose of laughs by flipping through the headlines looking for spelling errors.

Whether your a student, townee, or just visiting the Daily Tar Heel is a must read. I'm a newspaper…read morejunkie, and try to get my hands on local rags wherever I'm at, but this college publication is worthwhile even for the casual reader. The DTH annually recognized as one of the top collegiate newspapers in the country, and deceivingly so. They have a dedication to professional journalism with an ear to both students and the larger university and Chapel Hill community. For non-students this is a great way to get your hand on the pulse of what local young people are thinking, and a refreshingly untainted look at the news from a youthful idealism that's often faded by the time journalists reach the professional ranks. The DTH is careful to cover local, state, and national news in addition to campus stories. So there is something for everyone in this daily. You don't have to be on-campus to get a copy either. Boxes are stationed around town. On-campus or off, the DTH is free, which is a big plus. Also worth noting is that the DTH is probably the most effective place to advertise for local businesses as most every student is sure to pick on up each day.

Making custom-made T-shirts, they also have a whole bunch of great Chapel Hill T-shirts and UNCCH t-shirts and whatnot.

I would say this is the iconic T-shirt shop in one of the iconic Southern College towns but there are other t-shirt shops which you can check out too.

I brought in three prints, each in a different color palette, that I wanted coordinated to hang in my kitchen. Ash was a great listener and spent a lot of time matching just the right matte color to the content and finding a frame that brought them together and made them look like they belonged in that particular room.

She also created a website for my husband with a Wordpress theme that looked very clean and contemporary. He wanted his photography, print, and video work to be complimented by the look and not compete with it. And it worked! I liked these websites so much I asked her to make a third one to show cases our beach cottage. She helped create different pages for local attractions as well as the house!
