Learn what it’s like to be part of which Squad? Upper Quad!

With its rich history, beautiful landscaping, and close proximity to classes, Upper Quad is a great place to live. Upper Quad is made up of six different buildings, four of which form a quad at the corner of Cameron Avenue and Raleigh Street, and two of which flank the Old Well on Cameron Avenue.

Each of the buildings were named for alumni, lawyers, leaders, and University trustees.  Old East was the first building erected on a state university campus, followed soon after by Old West. 

But don’t let the history of this community fool you into thinking the vibe is sleepy or stagnant – there is much fun to be had!  Lay out in the quad on a sunny day, get moving and play some volleyball, or meet new friends at the weekly community program. Our UQ Crew cannot wait to meet all of you. You don’t want to miss Old East’s Birthday Bash – a traditional event celebrating the inception of the first university residence hall in the country, Old East, and later in the year, the U-BBQ, a traditional event that gets all UQ residents outside on the quad to kick back, enjoy the April weather and celebrate the year!

What Tar Heels are Saying

“I love how beautiful the Quad gets right as the sun breaks the sky open. I love my frequent runs through the Arboretum.  I love waking up every day to the Old Well outside my window. And the icing on the cake is that I'm only two minutes from all of my classes.”

–Toyosi, Old West resident
