  • UNC Ranks Top 5, Launches Cost Cuts, Names New QB, Boosts Safety & Welcomes Record-Breaking Class in Fall 2025 Update

    UNC Ranks Top 5, Launches Cost Cuts, Names New QB, Boosts Safety & Welcomes Record-Breaking Class in Fall 2025 Update
    Sep 22 2025
    Good afternoon, Tar Heels! Here's your campus news update for Monday, September 22, 2025. UNC-Chapel Hill has once again been recognized for its excellence, ranking as the No. 5 public university in the nation and tying for No. 27 overall in the 2025 U.S. News & World Report Best College rankings. Notably, Carolina has maintained its position among the top five public universities for 23 consecutive years and has been named the best value among public institutions for the 20th time. The university is implementing a cost-cutting plan aiming to save approximately $70 million, which is about 2% of its operational budget. This plan includes a $39 million reduction in nonresident financial aid and a 10% cut in funding for centers and institutes. These measures are in response to decreased state and federal funding for research and operational costs. In sports news, head coach Bill Belichick has named Gio Lopez as the starting quarterback for the Tar Heels ahead of the season opener against TCU. Lopez, a redshirt sophomore transfer from South Alabama, had an impressive previous season and is set to lead the team under Belichick's guidance. Following recent campus safety concerns, UNC-Chapel Hill hosted a preparedness festival to update the community on improvements to its emergency response plan. The university is introducing online training guides for faculty and teaching assistants, increasing the number of campus security cameras, and working to install more door locks to enhance safety measures. This fall, Carolina welcomed 4,641 first-year students and 983 transfer students, selected from a record 73,192 applicants. The incoming class represents 95 North Carolina counties, all 50 states, and 79 countries worldwide. The university's Carolina Across 100 initiative has launched the "Our State, Our Homes" program, collaborating with 14 community teams across North Carolina to address affordable housing challenges. This 18-month program aims to improve access to affordable housing by connecting communities with necessary tools and resources. That's all for today's update. Stay safe and Go Heels!

A preparedness festival was held to update the campus community on improvements, including online training guides for faculty and teaching assistants, and plans to add more cameras and door locks to campus facilities. In athletics, new head football coach Bill Belichick has named Gio Lopez as the starting quarterback for the Tar Heels. Lopez, a redshirt sophomore transfer from South Alabama, impressed during the preseason and is set to lead the team in the upcoming season opener against TCU. UNC-Chapel Hill is collaborating with 22 counties across North Carolina through the "Our State, Our Homes" program. This initiative aims to improve access to affordable housing by providing communities with tools and resources to address local housing challenges. In a significant partnership, Duke Health and UNC Health have unveiled plans to build North Carolina's first freestanding children's hospital. The project will receive an initial investment of $320 million from the state and aims to enhance pediatric care across the region. That's all for today's update. Stay safe, and as always, Go Heels!
