i’m sitting in biotech and there’s a red binder on the whiteboard 5 feet away from me. it’s labeled ‘semester in spain.’ there’s two stickers towards the bottom of the bind. one says 'fall 2012’, the other says 'spring 2013.’ first off, how and why is this binder here? two, seeing things from the past of a setting i’ve experienced makes me feel at ease. whoever owns this binder may be around my age, and most likely experienced uncc the same way i did years ago.
i’m talking about the uncc with bojangles in the cone center. the uncc with belk tower, before the waterfall. the uncc with physical parking passes and naive students who spent their adolescence in the late-2000’s.
the uncc i miss.
