I always thought Michigan owned the monopoly on directional schools, but it seems that North Carolina is a special place. I mean a state with direction already in its name throws in not only East Carolina U, but Western Carolina as well. To say nothing of Coastal Carolina. There is a Central Carolina Technical College, but that is in South Carolina, and that is a whole other can of worms.
Still, ’tis the season for playing Western Carolina as one of their notable alum is author of “The SantaLand Diaries,” David Sedaris. Oh, hey, and Eric Rudolph is an alum.
