Enacted during

The Morrill Act
of 1862, named
after US Senator
Justin Morrill,
provided federal
land grants to
states to sell
for the
establishment of
public
universities ,
”to promote
agricultural and
mechanical
education, as
well as military
tactics. After
the Civil war,
Morrill Act of
1890, provided
for
establishment of
l and-grant
colleges for
Blacks in states
who refused
admission to
Black students
in their public
colleges. The
Back story for
creation of Land
Grant Colleges
was prior to

economic driver
of the country
was agriculture
which lacked

N.C. A&T, was

| N.C. A&T Boosts Student Interest in STEM Careers with SciTech Week |
Jordan Howse
EAST GREENSBORO, N.C. (Feb. 20, 2019) -- North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University’s College of Science and Technology (CoST) will focus on the next generation of innovators during its 2019 SciTech Week, March 11-15. |
|
|
| The theme for the event is “STEM Expansion: Increasing Motivation, Awareness, Access, Preparation, and Purpose.” The week consists of visits by middle and high school students who will engage in hands-on STEM demonstrations and activities facilitated by CoST students and faculty, as well as Carolina Biological Supply Company. The purpose of SciTech Week is to educate and expose students to STEM-focused career pathways. The projected job market for STEM-related careers is almost limitless for today and tomorrow’s economy. In order to position underrepresented minorities for such competitive opportunities, students must feel encouraged to train in STEM fields. |
|
| |
 “Our economy is increasingly reliant on data and technology, and the demand for professionals in cloud computing, analytics and network security has increased as well,” said Abdellah Ahmidouch, Ph.D., dean of the College of Science and Technology. “N.C. A&T makes graduate STEM education accessible and continues to meet demand by giving our students the in-depth expertise and hands-on experience they need to be the 21st century STEM leaders.” File Video |
|
| |
|
| The School of Science & Technology, at North Carolina A&T State University presents its SCITECH WEEK March 18-23rd. Technology Week is to educate, inform, and display the field of technology and its place as a career choice. Technology is one of the fields that is in a job growth pattern and meets the strategic direction of the country by increasing jobs in STEM Link |

 Cross Campus Collaboration Nets N.C. A&T $7.5 Million Contract with U.S. Dept. of Labor Joy Cook
The Division of Research and Economic Development (DORED) at North Carolina A&T State University in conjunction with Lead Principal Investigator Dr. Cameron Seay, in the College of Science and Technology, has secured a federal contract through the U.S. Department of Labor. |
|
|
|
Cloud Security Dr. Cameron Seay, in the College of Science and Technology, Founder of NCA&T Extreme IT, Cloud Computing, Academic rep., Cloud Security. Student Research
|
| The five-year contract, with a value of $7.5 million, will be utilized to increase the numbers of underrepresented minorities and women in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) related fields. The contract will focus specifically on information technology as it relates to talent development for mainframe computers, on which the global economy depends. The term “mainframe computer” is usually associated with the IBM Corporation. With the advent and wide availability of micro-computing in the 1980s and beyond, mainframes were targeted for extinction because of their immense size and cost. While smaller computers with tremendous power have indeed revolutionized information technology, the heaviest input/output functions such as transaction processing, airline reservations and cellular signal routing are still left to the heavy lifters: mainframe computers. Although these big workhorses still play a vital role in the technology spectrum, the United States. |

 North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University (NC A&T) was established as the A&M college for the "Colored Race" in 1891. HBCU NC A&T, one of the state's two land grant institutions, has programs throughthe doctoral level. Its programs include engineering, arts and sciences, agricultural and environmental sciences, business and economics, education, nursing, technology, and graduates studies. “ The expected roles of a land-grant institution, is teaching agriculture and engineering, and providing cooperative extension services”. NC A&T's 2001 amend University Master Plan called for developing 75 acres of land along East Lee Street targeted to develop new opportunities for both research and education in both the private and academic arenas between the University's technology and agricultural research and its students, which didn't include across-town historical white UNC Greensboro and its affiliated members of the Greensboro business community. |

| From Joseph Henderson (State Property Office Director) to Terrance Feravich, CC: John Webb Thursday, August 17, 2006 Subject: NCA&T-UNCG Joint Millennial Campus (email) |
| |
| I have now read the agreement, lease, background info put out by GCID. GCID articles of incorporation and bylaws, and reviewed the pertinent general statues. It appears to me that A&T and UNCG set out on a course that was from the beginning contrary to the current statues governing millennial campuses. |
| |
| A transfer of the real property to GCID (by leaser or otherwise) would remove the Department of Administration, Joint Legislative Commission on Governmental Operations and Governor and Council of State from any oversight of the real property transactions. |
| |
| Given the appointment/election process for directors of GCID, how much control, if any, do the boards of trustees of the two institutions and the Board of Governors retain over the actions of GCID? It's hard to say who is in charge but my reading of the bylaws indicates the trustees and Board of Governors may have little say over, little knowledge of GCID' s actions except with GCID' cooperation. |
| |
| It seems the cart is before the horse. If the real estate on the millennial campus is to be managed as contemplated by the agreement and lease, the General Assembly should be consulted and the legislation changed to allow it without manipulation or circumvent current statues. In the interim, we will work with...and the campus to efficiently handle all contemplated real estate transactions. Emphasis added |
