Jehovah is Hegemony and Sovereign of all creation

taking whatever away from whoever as pleases Him.

Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, and the one who formed you from the womb, “I, the Lord, am the maker of all things, Stretching out the heavens by Myself. And spreading out the earth all alone. Humans have a method to enter heaven: By believing in God Almighty, the Father; the Son, Jesus Christ; and the Comforter, the Holy Spirit. "When will humans--finally--learn that there is one God, no matter the name, and one identity for all humanity " "A great event is coming that will wake everyone up — even the deaf, dumb, and blind."

Jehovah Strong

The LORD'S is my Shepherd Jesus Christ Super Star, Michael Jerel Pippen since 1949.  "God created man in his own image", I'm not black in Whiteman's game, the LORD's begotten son in His game.  King of the Angels, I bring the Sword. Joined by Wingmen Archangels Gabriel, Michael, Rafael & Armies to plow the road. The LORD put man in paradise, and  man chose the path of disobedience, opening Pandora's box upon himself. "The LORD did it for you,  now you do it for yourself."   The Holy Ghost intervene on Jehovah's behalf  for his people according to their works - when asked.  "Thus said the LORD people of color world wide shall have opportunities other that sports and entertainment."   
 

Jehovah, 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.

HBCU  institution North Carolina 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 members of the Greensboro business community.

 In 2003-04, with the backbone of North Carolina's industrial economy Tobacco, Textiles, and Furniture in decline/recession or outsourced, and   appropriations for UNC-System taking an ever increasing multi-billion dollar bite out of state's coffers, North Carolina's Legislature thru House Bill 1264 (HB 1264) direct UNC-BOG and COMMUNITY COLLEGE SYSTEM  to contract a private consulting firm that had experience in  higher education to conduct a comprehensive study (Staying a step  ahead) of the mission and educational program needs to ensure that the State's citizens are academically prepared and equipped for current job opportunities and jobs of the future in North Carolina's growing knowledge economy.

The Greensboro Center was also home to the remote sensing lab.  The Memorandum of Understanding says A&T has a working farm with modern facilities and farm equipment. NRCS will benefit from the use of this farm by  being able to provide hands-on training to NRCS employees. NRCS can sponsor field studies that can serve as demonstrations to both NRCS trainees and also local and regional farmers. A negotiated action under Solicitation 5NC0075 resulted in a non-competitive award to locate the USDA Natural Resources Conversation Service's East National Technical Center and East Remote Sensing Laboratory on the North Carolina A&T State University Millennium Campus.

Action Item: Lease Agreement between the Greensboro Center for Innovative Development and UNCG and NC A&T, was considered by UNCG Board of Trustees. 
BACKGROUND  INFORMATION
 
  • In September 2005, a Management Services and Development Agreement
    (MSDA) between the GCID and NCA&T and UNCG was approved and executed by each party's respective board of Trustees. The MSDA formally established a working relationship between the two universities and the GCID for future development- Section I.F. of the MSDA states, "The Universities shall lease to GCID any or all property designated as the JMC, subject to necessary governmental approvals- Such leases shall be long term leases for nominal consideration.  emphasis added
 
  • In order to facilitate the GCID's ability to perform its role as manager/developer it was determined by counsel for the universities and the GCID to pursue a master lease for the properties identified as the JMC. The lease document is based on a model previously used by several UNC campuses, including UNCG and NCA&T. This document has also been reviewed by the Office of the President.  Emphasis added
  • The purpose of this action is to request approval from this Board to proceed with a 50-year ground lease (and two successive 10 year renewals) with the GCID on land owned by the Sate of North Carolina (Approximately 75 acres with 142,000 square feet of existing space at the former Central North Carolina School for the Deaf and approximately 75 acres adjacent to the NCA&T farm), on which the GCID will develop, in concert with the universities, a research park similar to the Centennial Campus at North Carolina State University.

Action Item background information says, In September 2005 the MSDA formally established a working relationship between the two universities and the GCID for future development- Section I.F. of the MSDA states, "The Universities shall lease to GCID any or all property designated as the JMC. ""In order to facilitate the GCID ability to perform its role as managed/developer it was determined by counsel for the universities and the GCID to pursue a master lease for the properties identified as the JMC ( land owned by the State of North Carolina at the former Central North Carolina School for the Deaf and 75 acres adjacent the the NCA&T farm).  Proposed lease was for Identified JMC, unambiguous no statutory NCGS: 116-198.34.

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. 
 
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
