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.
Nanotechnology, Nanoscience and Nanoengineering, should have been HBCU NCA&T Signature Programs
 
“Signature programs” have been defined as those that are distinctive, that build on existing strengths, that advance the institution’s profile, and that serve regional and/or state economic transformation needs."

"It is predicted that nano scale science will change the nature of almost every human-made product this century. This field has great potential applications in materials, medicine, electronics, optics, data storage, advanced manufacturing, environment, energy, and national security.  PCG/UNC-NCCS/UNC Interim report3. doc/RB.SP.PC.CR.Atpcc.I /CC.14/10May05 page 109]

" I am so energized by the potential of this research park, in particular the joint schools of nano technology and nano science. The world is seeing explosive growth today in the commercialization of nanotechnology. We will have all of the assets right here in Guilford County that we need to participate in that explosion, and they will be right here at the Gateway University Research Park." said ("Greensboro Boy" ) Erskine Bowles  President of the University of North Carolina System. [2].
 
For Liberal Arts UNC Greensboro with doctorial programs in music and nursing to offer Nanoscience degrees  requires access to NC A&T academic programs and research:  “Although the degree is in Nanoscience (does not include Nanoengineering)
students will be given the opportunity to take relevant courses at the School of Engineering at North Carolina A&T University and must be able to work on collaborative projects with faculty in the School of Engineering.

Negotiation began in 2002 and September 2004 NC A&T State University celebrated the sighing of Memorandum of Understanding  with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) with the opening of the National Resources Conservation Services Eastern Regional Technology Center whose service area consisted of 24 states and the Caribbean area. 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.
 
 
Request for Proposals by Gateway University Research Park for Construction The Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering- dated Sept. 1, 2004

 Project Overview: The JSNN will support established research programs with faculty from the two universities and will have its own faculty lines as well. The primary goal of the school is to be a world leader in research, nano-related education, and outreach. The JSNN will promote Research goals, Education goals, and Outreach goals. To meet these goals, the JSNN will require specialized, state-of-the-art industrial quality research space. These will include laboratories for life sciences, engineering, materials science and other spaces requiring tightly controlled environments.

Proposed Leases were smoking Gun No statuary NCGS: 116-198.34.(8b) NC A&T/ UNCG Joint Millennial Campus was designated Oct. 10, 2003 by UNC Board of Governors for Session Law 2003-284, Section 6.20, land and facilities, and 75-acre parcel of NCA&T Farmland.

Feb. 2, 2006, 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.

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 for Identified JMC, unambiguous indicate no statutory NCGS: 116-198.34.

Adopt Section 600.1.6 of the UNC Policy Manual, Policy on Millennial Campuses

03.30.25
Situation: The UNC Policy Manual does not address the Board’s authority for the Centennial Campus, the Horace Williams Campus, and additional millennial campuses. The proposed Section 600.1.6 of the UNC Policy Manual will define the Board’s authority in support of G.S. 116-198.31.  Link
The upshot of  NCGS § 116-198.34.(8B) "designation shall be based on an express finding by the Board of  Governors that the institution desiring to create a "Millennial Campus" has the administrative and fiscal capability to create and maintain such a campus.  Upon formal request by the constituent institutions, the Board of Governors may authorize two or more constituent institutions which meet the requirements of this section to create a Joint Millennial.
 
Board of  Governors' 2023 document  institutions with millennial campus designations and the UNC System, do not indicate NCA&T/UNCG Joint Millennial Campus  was designated.  2023 document  indicate UNC System Millennial campus in 2003 and 2022.
 
§ 116-198.34. General powers of Board of Governors. The Board may exercise any one or more of the following powers: (1) To determine the location and character of any project or projects, and to 1 acquire, construct, and provide the same, and to maintain, repair, and 2 operate, and to enter into contracts for the management, lease, use, or  operation of all or any portion of any project or projects and any existing 4 facilities.
Lacking and designated NCA&T/UNCG joint Millennial Campus, the Board of Governor lacked authority pursuant GS 116-198.34 (1) to enter into contracts for the management, lease, use, or operation of all or any portion of any project or projects and any existing facilities.
