UNC Student Murdered

Another sad story... they are reporting right now about Eve Carson, a student at Univ of North Carolina, who was found shot in the head a short distance from campus. She has since died.

She was their student body president.

No greek affiliation mentioned thus far.

Police aren't yet speculating on a tie in with Auburn, but this girl was also from Georgia.

She was a member of the Phi Beta Kappa honor society.
Judging from the following links, both news as well as relating to her election, she was a person who could have gone places and done well and perhaps some good. Truly a great loss.

My hands are shaking as I type because I am so upset over this. Your college years are supposed to be some of the most amazing years of your life. Yet in this day and age these young adults cannot feel safe either in the classroom or walking across campus. Sad, just so sad......

I just found this out. One of my best friends was friends with her in high school. I just can't believe all of this is happening. As I told him, it makes me want to hug everybody that I love and tell them so.

This is just heartbreaking. My thoughts are with her family and friends. She seemed like an amazing woman.

I believe I remember Eve saying her mother was a professor or an administrator at UGA as well.
