 Banality of Evil -- Conceived in bigotry and nourished on the twin fronts of prejudice and injustice: Why is alleged Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering  
joint and facility located at alleged UNC System Millennial Campus, Gateway Research Park South Campus, land part of NC A&T farm - They rather keep
you struggling than see you self-sufficient.
 
No statuary NCGS: 116-198.34. (8b) NC A&T/ UNCG Joint Millennial Campus was designated by UNC Board of Governors ("UNC BOG"), enabling  Greensboro Center for Innovative Development, Inc. ("GCID")  to administer the educational, research, and economic development mission of Joint Millennial Campus; UNC BOG/  UNC System Office de facto designated millennial campus\ NCA&T/UNCG Joint Millennial Campus & Joint School of Nanoscience  and Nanoengineering, serves as conduit diverting NCA&T proposed university millennial campus

  75-acres of farmland, USDA sole source agreement to located building on NCA&T millennial campus, Federal Research and Academic programs, to be accessed by HWI UNC Greensboro, Gateway Research Park, Inc., businesses, and addition UNC constituents institutions and other institutions, as UNCG/NCA&T Joint Millennial campus, aka, Gateway University Research Park; No lawful lease was executed by UNC Board of Governors/UNC System Office to GCID for Session Law 2003-284, Section 6.20, land and facilities and 75-acre parcel of NCA&T Farmland.
 
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 affiliated members of the Greensboro business community.
 
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.
 
Emerging from a legislative mandated study HB 1264 , Staying a Step Ahead,  to ensure  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, explicitly referred to research clusters Public Health, Biotechnology, Bio & Food Sciences, Advanced Materials & nanotechnology, Computational Science & Engineering,  Leadership & Community development, Information Sciences & Technology, Transportation & Logistics, and Energy & Environment created by HBCU NCA&T.
 
Staying a Step Ahead (HB 1264(7)(2003-04)) the Legislature mandated the Board of Governors emphasized existing and new programs at Liberal Arts  Universities specifically aimed at meeting business, industry, workforce, and career needs of North Carolina in the State's changing and growing knowledge-based economy, taking into account, as appropriate, State and regional economic strategies.
 

The University of North Carolina at Greensboro 2003-2004 Profile

 
Its [UNCG] historically strong programs in music, education and nursing are not the kinds of programs that spin off research and development or software companies to fuel high tech economies [Ken Mayer, Editorial, UNCG, A&T University will need to be leaders in the charge for high-tech industry in the Triad, Triad Business Journal Nov 9, 1998] ( Ken Mayer is former Chairman UNCG BOT 2003-2004 & 2004-2005.
 
 With the source of enrollment growth being minorities as white enrollment leveled off across  the  University of North Carolina, Guilford Technical Community College experiencing record enrollment, ECPI University and ITT Tech offering addition technology based education in the Triad education market place.   What’s left on the plate for Majority serving Liberal Arts UNCG with a potential national and

 
regional prominent HBCU NCA&T across town? Would political astute business organization affiliated UNC-G use political connections to reposition Majority serving  UNC-G in and Minority serving NCA&T out?  UNC-G 2003-08 formulated a 2003-08 academic plan to establish a joint Millennial campus with NC A&T.
 
Reported in the Media: Last month, the members [Greensboro Area Chamber of Commerce] came up with a recommendation: a Knowledge Campus, " more commonly known as a research park. this campus would house N.C. 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.  Emphasis added. Could Greensboro Support Research Park? News & Record Oct.19.1997 Beth McMurtrie.
 
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. Properties in these areas should receive priority consideration as the City designates and promotes land for economic development. 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.]

Work with NCA&TSU to establish a research park on the A&T farm property, [NCA&T Farmland was  located in Guilford County not Greensboro City.
 

 
"I think for the next 50 years, A&T and the engineering programs and science programs are going to be an integral part and a driving force in the economic development of the community,'' said Greensboro attorney Jim Phillips Jr., a member of the UNC Board of Governors." [3]
 
"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. Photo NC A&T. [2]
 
Fraudulent claiming HBCU NC A&T and HWI UNCG were partners in  Board of Governors designated NCGS: 116-198.34. (8b) NC A&T/UNCG  Joint Millennial Campus.   May 2007 UNC Board of Governors established alleged Joint School of

Nanoscience and Nanoengineering, located at the South Campus at de facto NC A&T / UNCG Joint Millennial Campus, UNCG affiliate, Gateway University  Research Park, Inc.; to offer (a) joint interdisciplinary Ph.D. degree and (a) joint professional science master's degree.
 

The Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering will be a unique, interdisciplinary school, located at the South Campus of the Gateway University Research Park, the Joint Millennial campus of the NC A&T and UNCG. [5]
 

2023 UNC SYSTEM MILLENNIAL CAMPUS REPORT institutions with millennial campus designations and the UNC System, does not indicate NCA&T/UNCG joint Millennial Campus, Gateway Research Park, Inc.
 
 

NC A&T/UNCG submitted Joint Request for authorization to Establish” Ph.D. in Nanoscience” dated Oct. 10, 2008 to UNC General Administration and Joint Request for authorization to establish “Master of Science (in Nanoscience)” dated Nov. 21, 2008  to UNC General Administration.
 
The National Center for Educational Statistics (NCES) responsible for collecting and presenting statistical data and information for the nation; classifies Nanoscience and Nanoengineering as Nanotechnology CIP 15.1601: Engineering technologies and Engineering related fields.
 

Historical Black Land Grant NC A&T was listed as University focus on Nanotechnology May 2005.
Crosstown PWI UNC Greensboro was not listed as a University focused on Nanotechnology and Gateway University Research Park did not exist.
 
Nanotechnology is experimental
NC A&T was 4th in Nanotechnology Research at North Carolina Universities
with $11 Million Dollars between 2000-2005 and UNC Greensboro was 11th out of 12 with $44,999. In 2003 A&T, NATO Sponsor Material Symposium in Ukraine.
 
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.
 

“Activities/Resources: Leverage faculty collaboration at JSNN to enhance research partnerships between UNCG and NC A&T researchers.  Expected Result, UNCG opportunities in grants previously unavailable due to limitations in areas of certain research expertise. “
 
Notwithstanding May 2007 UNC Board of Governors established alleged Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering, at bogus NC A&T / UNCG Joint Millennial Campus, UNCG affiliate, Gateway University Research Park, Inc. to offer (a) joint interdisciplinary Ph.D. degree and (a) joint professional science master's degree. 
 
 
The University of North Carolina Board of Governors authorized PWI UNC Greensboro Nanoscience MS on November 13, 2009 and  PhD program in Nanoscience on January 8, 2010 requiring UNCG students take relevant courses  at the School of Engineering at North Carolina A&T University and be able to work on collaborative projects with faculty in the School of Engineering”.
 

Excluding (The) North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State university from offering  MS and PhD Nanoscience degrees, forcing the HBCU out of the JSNN Mission to offer 
(a) joint interdisciplinary Ph.D. degree and (a) joint professional science master's degree.
 
Cannibalizing NC A&T, Scripting UNC-G and Gateway Research Park, Inc. in Nanoscience and Nanoengineering, pursuant bogus alleged NCAT\UNC-G Joint Millennial Campus
 
UNC Board of Governors 2007-09 budget Priorities bogus claim the Greensboro Center for Innovative Development- renamed  Gateway University Research Park

 
as NCAT/UNC-G Joint Millennial Campus relocated NCA&T College of EngineeringSchool of TechnologyPhysical Sciences and Applied Sciences programs and research, off –campus to the bogus Joint Millennial (with UNCG).
 
It is expected That JSNN will offer master's and Ph.D. degrees in nanoscience and nanoengineering. The instructional deliver will be through classes and research activities at NC A&T, UNCG and JSNN facilities.

In addition to degree programs in nanoscience and nanoengineering, JSNN will engage in research and outreach, as well as the expected roles of a land-grant institution, such as teaching agriculture and engineering, and providing cooperative extension services.  The JSNN facilities will be located on land that was formerly part of the NC A&T farm.
 
When all of the occupations which will be affected by nanotechnology will require a BS in engineering with a broad, interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary approach; will require an understanding not only of electrical, mechanical and civil engineering, but biology, physics and chemistry as well.

University of North Carolina at Greensboro  2008-2009 Profile

 
Why is across-town Liberal Art UNC Greensboro with programs in music and nursing, requiring relevant courses be taken at the School of Engineering at North Carolina A&T University and will be able to work on collaborative projects with faculty in the School of Engineering”, except for unvarnished racism offering Nanotechnology degrees?  
 
 
UNC Board of Governors' bogus NCA&T/UNCG Joint Millennial Campus designation, defrauded the state of North Carolina of land and facilities via unlawful bogus lease to Gateway Research Park,   killed NCA&T university Millennial  at (NC A&T Farm) 2900 East Lee Street Greensboroforced HBCU NC A&T  into a shotgun  defacto  Joint

Millennial Campus with across town HWI UNC-Greensboro;  Pirated NC A&T Memorandum of  Understanding with the USDA, academic programs, and research,  placed NC A&T students outside equal protections of the laws. Link
