Pit Sitting: Miss UNC Edition

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Chapel Hill chapter.

The campaigns for Miss UNC were in full force on Monday. Miss UNC nominees and their supporters sought to rally support in the Pit for their candidate and cause. Campaigners used many tactics to gather the biggest crowd around their candidate including cheering, chanting, dancing and enthusiastic sign waving.

Supporters chant “KATIE” as they wave giant neon letters.

Campaigners entertain passerbys with cheers and dances about Monique.
