Mascot


A miner was chosen as the UNC Charlotte mascot as a nod to Reed Gold Mine in nearby Concord, the site of the first documented gold find in the United States in 1799.  He was named Norm through popular student vote shortly after he was made mascot.  Norm is rarely seen without his trusty pick-axe and never takes his slouch hat off.
