UNC students, alumni recount memorable snow days


Anna Curtis, a chemistry professor who went to North Carolina as an undergraduate, has fond memories of snow on campus. Curtis said she remembers a snowstorm in 2009 that students called “snObama” because it occurred around the time that President Barack Obama was inaugurated. She said that everyone was excited about the wintry scene. (Daily Tar Heel)
