Hangman noose found at JSNN/Gateway
From: Chancellor Harold L. Martin, Sr.  Date: November 7, 2017
Re: Incident at JSNN
Earlier today, a staff member at the Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering (JSNN) discovered a noose hanging in the school’s facilities. N.C. A&T, UNCG, and Greensboro police departments quickly identified the individual responsible, an outside contractor who told authorities he meant the noose as a joke. That contractor has been terminated and will not be allowed to work for either university or Gateway University Research Park in the future.  I am deeply disturbed by this incident; such actions have no place at our university or in our society and certainly will not be tolerated. I am grateful to our police departments and our colleagues at JSNN for bringing the matter to a close, emphasis added.

N.C. A&T College of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences Debuts Community Resource Page

 Lydian Bernhardt

EAST GREENSBORO, N.C. (Dec. 4, 2025) – The College of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences (CAES) at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University has added a “Community Resources” page to its website, designed to help members of the East Greensboro, Triad and North Carolina communities find support, especially when facing unexpected challenges.

Vern Switzer of Rural Hall, North Carolina, is among several farmers from across the state selected as mentors for Cooperative Extension at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University’s Farmer-to-Farmer Program. A regular at the downtown farmer’s market in Winston-Salem, Switzer also regularly assists other Forsyth County, North Carolina, farmers in their quests for profitable alternative crops and cost-effective production methods.

The page, https://www.ncat.edu/caes/community-resources/index.php, links to educational and practical information offered through Cooperative Extension at N.C. A&T and CAES outreach programs, but primarily focuses on community resources outside the college and the university. Many, such as the Aggie Source Food Pantry and the N.C. Agromedicine Institute, have collaborated with the college and N.C. A&T Cooperative Extension staff to address critical, immediate needs and to provide long-term educational programs.  link

Prestigious NIH Grant to Power N.C. A&T Food Scientist’s Fight Against Heart Disease

College of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences

EAST GREENSBORO, N.C. (Oct. 30, 2025) — A leading food scientist at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University is part of a team that has received the most competitive grant offered by the National Institutes of Health to investigate whether plant-rich diets can become the newest weapon in the fight against cardiovascular disease.

North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University food scientist Shengmin Sang, Ph.D., is researching a possible connection between a plant-based diet and heart disease prevention with a five-year, $3.2 million grant from the National Institutes of Health.

 

Shengmin Sang, Ph.D., Distinguished Professor of Functional Foods in N.C. A&T’s College of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences (CAES), will conduct a controlled human feeding study and analyze data collected from that study. This project is funded by a five-year, $3.2 million grant from the NIH’s National Heart Lung and Blood Institute. A&T will receive the largest portion of the award, $1.4 million.

“We know that plant-based foods are good for human health and are linked to a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, but the internal mechanisms of how they work are still unclear,” said Sang. “For this project, we want to provide scientific evidence that links plant-based food to the prevention of cardiovascular disease.”

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Roughly one out of every three deaths in this country is attributed to heart disease, which amounts to more than $400 billion annually in health care costs, medicine expenditures and lost productivity.

Aggies Go Red for Women’s Heart Health
Nanyamka A. Farrelly  
In observance of National Go Red for Women’s Health and National Wear Red Day, North Carolina A&T State University Student Health Center has partnered with the American Heart Association (AHA) to present the fifth annual Aggies Go Red event, 10 a.m.-1 p.m., Friday, Feb. 5 at the health center. February is designated as American Heart Month. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in the United States. Because African Americans and women are disproportionately affected, N.C. A&T health professionals say it’s imperative for the university and the AHA to do their part to raise awareness about risk factors and ways to prevent the chronic disease.  File Video


“We are always seeking to move the needle on health disparities as it relates to this population,” said university health educator Janet Lattimore. “We want to encourage our students to start thinking about  these health disparities and chronic diseases at an earlier age because they  can start to develop or prevent them based on their health habits.” This year’s Aggies Go Red event will feature

N.C. A&T Celebrates Fall 2025 Graduates  by Jackie Torok

EAST GREENSBORO, N.C. (Dec. 13, 2025) – Resilient in the face of challenge. Bold in the pursuit of innovation. Steadfast in a commitment to make the world better for all. These are the characteristics of the approximately 1,200 students – including nearly 300 graduate students – who just became fall 2025 North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University graduates, said Chancellor James R. Martin II.

N.C. A&T Enrollment Explodes Over 15,000 in University’s Largest Growth Year Ever

EAST GREENSBORO, N.C. (Sept. 10, 2025) – North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University enrollment crested over 15,000 this fall, driven by strong increases in student populations across the board, including North Carolina and out-of-state freshmen, transfer students and doctoral candidates, campus leaders announced today.

For the 12th consecutive year, North Carolina A&T is the largest public historically Black college or university (HBCU) in the nation, as well as the largest such institution America has ever produced for the fourth consecutive year. The total enrollment of 15,275 – nearly 1,000 more students than last fall when enrollment was 14,311, making this the university’s biggest single year of growth – represents a jump of 6.7%.

UNC Board of Governors/ UNC System, Confederate / Trump  Leopard,  complicit with Greensboro Business organizations and Gateway research park, have not changed their spots. In 1970, the United States Department of Health, Education, and Welfare notified the University of North Carolina System that it was violating Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by maintaining a racially dual system of public higher education.  In 1971, the Supreme Court’s ruling in Swann v. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education unanimously upheld busing.  North Carolina  Higher Education Reorganization Act of 1971, placed the state 16 institutions under one governing board.

Union Square Campus is a key initiative of Opportunity Greensboro, a working group of leaders from Greensboro businesses, foundations and higher education institutions. This national model of collaboration is identifying and acting on opportunities to transform our wealth of educational assets into economic success—creating for Greensboro a competitive advantage for business growth. The proposed campus is designed to drive economic and workforce development for a knowledge based, global economy. 
The presence of a downtown university campus provides a vehicle to spur additional economic growth in the way of housing, retail stores and other opportunities. The first campus building will focus on training and education for healthcare professions.  The facility is intended to focus on healthcare professionals and will 
house expansion of the Universities’ programs in nursing, and Greensboro’s healthcare system, Cone Health, will use the facility to train staff.
