My Carolina Experience: Mike Morton

Posted Nov 5, 2014
After seven years in the NFL and earning a Super Bowl ring, Mike Morton returned to UNC to earn his dental degree. "Making the transition from the NFL to the dental office was difficult. The discipline I learned as an athlete made it much easier to go back and complete dental school. I feel being a student-athlete at Carolina helped prepare me to face difficult situations I've come across them later in life." (GoHeels.com)
