Here are 5 things I love about Carolina

Posted Mar 28, 2026
Rameses at Home - One of my favorite experiences in the community is when I drive past the Hogan family farm and I catch a glimpse of Carolina Blue in the field. Rameses is a celebrity on campus, but when it’s not game day, he lives on a family farm alongside the other animals. It’s always a delight to spot him, with his Carolina Blue-painted horns.
