UNC students take first-day sips at the Old Well
Posted Aug 17, 2026
It’s the first day of classes at Carolina, and as Tar Heels know, that means it’s also time to drink from the Old Well for good luck this semester. Thousands of students took part in the tradition, caught up with friends and ran into Carolina football coach Bill Belichick, who handed out bagels and coffee with Alex Brandwein ’20 (MBA) of Brandwein’s Bagels.
