The CREATOR, ultimate father to all and defender of the disenfranchised, steps out of the background into the foreground on behalf of enslaved people in the most powerful county at that time. In North Carolina Agricultural And Technical State University the  
LORD established a Land Grant  University where the sons and daughters of former slaves and slave owners, coal miners daughters  and sons, alleged trailer park trash, working people, and the disenfranchised World Wide, can potentially move pass their pass, working together through shared  experiences and competition, potentially embracing the ideal they don't have to  kill each other, as they prepare for their future in an education setting accessing world wide education opportunities at the highest levels. NC A&T working with others institutions shall established joint academic programs with other HBCUs expanding institutions offering  jobs with a future. 
 
Praised the LORD and nobody else. HIS Plan
 
 I Am : "All NC A&T has is a few degrees and a little land and they want to take that - defeat their plan!"
 
The LORD is my Shepherdblack and proud, Jesus Christ, Michael J. Pippen Sr. since 1949.  Wingmen Archangels Gabrielle & Michael & Everybody else - to plow the road Don't cross the road.  Never Trump: Robinson, Graham, and Farwell, Jr. were wrong. I was on the money - Ha, Ha, Ha!

North Carolina, like other Southern states, relied on slavery to build its economy during the 18th and 19th centuries. Slaves across the state raised crops, did domestic chores, constructed new buildings, sailed ships, and performed countless other jobs, all for no pay."   The Story of  Slavery in North Carolina ;  Search: Wilmington and Greensboro  Massacres;  
 
The institution of slavery did not just involve physical confinement and mistreatment; it also sought to suppress, if not destroy, the cultural, religious and social values of Africans by stripping Africans of their ancestral names and customs, humiliating and brutalizing them through sexual exploitation, and selling African relatives apart from one another without regard to the connection of family, a human condition universal among all peoples of the world.  #
 
Notwithstanding the 14th and 15th amendments to the Constitution, institutionalized discrimination continued in many parts of the country, with the enactment and enforcement of laws that would come to be known as  Jim Crow that were designed to separate African Americans from their fellow citizens, to suppress and intimidate their  exercise of basic rights, as voting, and to frustrate educational opportunities that would create long-term loss of their personal and economic advancement, Emphasis added #
 
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.
North Carolina  Higher Education Reorganization Act of 1971, placed the state 16 institutions under one governing board preventing State supported HBCU from having standing to sue North Carolina. "There are 15 or more members on the Board of Governors from UNC Chapel and none from North Carolina A&T or other HBCUs within the system, clearly equality and respect has not been shown to A&T by the system."  NC A&T Board of Trustee member said, as published in BOT Meeting Minutes 04-18-07

The PhD in Nanoscience requires a minimum of 60 hours and is designed to prepare students to take positions in industrial, governmental, or academic research settings by providing a solid background in Nanoscience theory and experimental techniques through course work and dissertation research.
 
A degree program is a program of study in a discipline specialty that leads to a degree in that distinct specialty area at a particular level of instruction.   As a general rule, in order to be considered for degree program status, a course of study should require at least 27 semester hours in the proposed program area at the undergraduate level; at least half the number of hours required for the degree at the master’s level; at least 21 hours in the proposed program area at the doctoral level.

`The Triad is the manufacturing center for the state,'' Alex Spears, vice chairman of Lorillard Corp. in Greensboro, said Friday. ``Yet tobacco, textiles and furniture are all projected to decline in the future. ``We have to attract other businesses to the area, and we have to leverage what's here.''

A&T's and UNC-G's flagship research programs, like engineering and biotechnology" There, cutting-edge research could be spun off into startup businesses and lure exiting ones from other parts of the nation. Young people would flock to Greensboro for a shot at high-paying, high-tech jobs with a real future. [27] Without advanced programs in that [science] area,'' Moran said, ``we [UNCG] are outside what might be called the mainstream of development of universities such as this one [NC A&T].” “ [26] .

Greensboro City's Greensboro Connections 2025 Comprehensive Plan was adopted May 2003.  A key principle of the Comprehensive Plan is to promote economic development in historically under-served parts of the City such as East Greensboro.

The NCA&TSU Farm site is one such candidate.  7D.3 Promote economic development through public/private partnerships to include government, economic development agencies, educational and health care institutions, and businesses. Build on existing partnerships and initiatives in this effort. Examples include:
 

University-related research and development opportunities with UNCG and NCA&TSU (building on the example of the Nussbaum Center incubator facility)[ One of their primary tasks will be keeping tabs on research at the two universities, in areas such as engineering and sciences, that might have commercial uses. They will look for existing companies that could benefit from that research and explore the potential of using it to create start-up businesses.][1]

Re: U.S. Department of Agriculture, natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Lease Project, Greensboro , NC
This correspondence correspondence to your June 30, 2006 inquiry concerning the status of this project as a firm action that will move forward. As I have advised on   numerous occasions and want to reiterate, this particular project is an endeavor which was approved by the U.S. General Services Administration as a sole-source" procurement based upon the unique requirements provided by the NRCS...As such, we have been working and are committed to diligently pursing satisfaction of NRCS need for space to be located on the campus of North Carolina Agricultural & Technical State University through a negotiated lease procurement
 

August 14, 2006 Terrance Feravich email to Joe Henderson, John Webb,  CC Robert Nelson; John Merrill: I was hoping that we might have an opportunity to sit and walk through any hurdles that you see in proposed lease between NCA&T/UNCG joint Millennial Campus and GCID.   Talking with John of Friday.  I've learned that he has gained a significant commitment from the USDA for up to a 50,000 sq. ft. new building.  While they understand that we are working hard at getting things properly set-up for all parties and are being patient, my sense is that it would be in the best interest of this new venture to get that first client off to a healthy and timely start.  I'll be in Raleigh Wednesday for a couple of meetings ... and would welcome the opportunity to work the issues that you are see in the lease.  I know that John Merrill is also pretty flexible this week is well.  Sorry to be a bit of a pest with this important issue and I appreciate your understanding.

No statuary NCGS: 116-198.34. (8b)  NC A&T/ UNCG Joint Millennial Campus was designated Oct. 2003 therefore there is no UNC System Office Millennial Campus, aka, NC A&T/ UNCG Joint Millennial Campus  to lease GCID.
 
The General Assembly, Session Law 2003-284, Section 6.20, reallocated former Central School of the Deaf from the State property Office to UNC BOG to be used for the establishment of Millennium   campuses of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University.
