In North Carolina In North Carolina Agricultural And Technical State University, where the student made the bricks to build the building in which to be educated, the  LORD established a Land Grant  University 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. 






 
Banality of Evil,  Conceived in bigotry and nourished on the twin fronts of prejudice and injustice, UNC System complicit Greensboro Business Organizations, Gateway Research park, Inc.,  corruption, malfeasance and systemic racism. Why is alleged Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering joint and facility located at de facto  Joint Millennial Campus Gateway Research Park South Campus, on land part of NC A&T farm - cannibalizing NC A&T
UNC Board of Governors/ UNC System, Confederate / Trump  Leopard,  corruption and systemic racism, complicit with Greensboro Business organizations and Gateway Research Park, have not changed their spots. Canalizing HBCU NC A&T, UNC Board of  Governors designated HWI UNC Greensboro Nanoscience degrees pursuant bogus JMC Gateway Research Park, scripting UNC-G and Gateway Research Park in Nanoscience.  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. 

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.
 

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 created by HBCU NCA&T.
 

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&T constituents will also benefit from this type of applied investigation. Finally,  A&T faculty and students can also benefit academically by conducting scholarly research and publishing this information.
 
"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 " "Last year, the development corporation proposed the idea of developing a UNCG/A&T Knowledge and Industry Campus, perhaps in southeast Greensboro...This would be the beginning of our version of N.C. State's Centennial Campus." [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 former Chairman UNCG BOT 2003-2004 & 2004-2005.

"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]

 

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.][1]

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

 
Notwithstanding NCA&T's 2001 Master Plan update calling for establishing a university Millennial Campus at the farm, credited in the media as the work of UNC-G district NC Senator Kay Hagan, June 30, 2003, the General Assembly, Session Law 2003-294, 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.
 

"A Promise for the Future By some accounts, nanotechnology is destined to replace much of today's technology. Gateway University Research Park expects to be at the forefront of these new technologies with the creation of a new institution the Joint School for Nanoscience and Nanoengineering (JSNN)" [15]  “The Joint School for Nanoscience and Nanoengineering….. built on the major nanotechnology research activity been established. at Wake forest and NCA&T” [13]  [15] The intent of the (JSNN) school is to become a world-class educational and technical institution. [34]. “It [JSNN] will be one of the most stimulating opportunities in the history of the area and will serve as a national model for collaboration between two institutions, one a historical black institution and the other a historical white female institution.”  5
 
" 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 Gateway Research Park South Campus.   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 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]
 
Board of  Governors' 2023 document  institutions with millennial campus designations and the UNC System, does not indicate a NCA&T/UNCG Joint Millennial Campus (Gateway Research Park. It does indicate UNC System Millennial Campus 2003, 2022.
 
2023 UNC SYSTEM MILLENNIAL CAMPUS REPORT  issue overview indicated G.S. 116-198.3(8a) and (8b) provides the University of North Carolina Board of Governors the authority to designate  real property and appurtenant facilities to be included as part of a millennial campus. It does not indicate authority for UNC System to designated millennial campus.
 
Proposed Lease was 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. And no UNC Sytem Millennial Campus was designated in 2003
 
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. Action item background information timeline from Feb. 2003 through Feb2, 2006 didn't indicated  JMC  was designed by UNC BOG.
 
Action Item background information says " 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 by university counsels, GCID, and General Administration,  emphasis added.
 
 
The Identified JMC property consisted of  land owned by the State 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 NC A&T farm).... which unambiguous constitute the UNC Board of  Governors alleged Oct. 10, 2003 designated NC A&T/UNC-G Millennial Campus, emphasis added.  Lease Background said " This document has also been reviewed by the Office of the President (Bowles)."

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.
 
Nanotechnology, Nanoscience and Nanoengineering should have been NC A&T Signature programs
 
HB 1264 (6),  says with regard to the University System, there shall be special emphasis on the development of signature programs for Historically Black Colleges and Universities and the University of North Carolina at Pembroke.
 
“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."
 
NC A&T has twelve years of Experience in Nanotechnology and Nanoscience (4)
 
"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]
 

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.
 
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.
 
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. “
 

UNC Policy for Interdisciplinary Degree 


An Interdisciplinary Degree program involves two or more academic units, either on the same or different campuses  in a formal agreement to offer a program of study drawing on two or more disciplines that will result in a student being awarded an interdisciplinary degree. If more than one campus is involved in offering the program it would also be a joint degrees.
 
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. 
 
Reported in the Media:  "UNCG and N.C. A&T are partners in the project. UNCG is offering graduate degrees in Nanoscience. A&T will eventually offer degrees in Nanoengineering."[11]
 
 
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).
 

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.
 
UNCG will act as the financial manager for JSNN beginning in fiscal year "09-'10, using a budget accounting code established for JSNN.  JSNN will follow  all UNCG Budget and fiscal management policies and procedures. NC A&T will be designated as the campus responsible for the upkeep of the buildings, but upon receipt of the Building Operation and Maintenance money for JSNN, will transfer the money to Gateway University Research park in accordance with the Management Services and Development Agreement between Gateway, NC A&T and UNCG [36]
 

 All references to "JSNN faculty, Nanoengineering faculty and Nanoscience faculty in this document refer to faculty members hired by JSNN to carry out their primary research and academic duties in JSNN. "Nanoengineering faculty are faculty members hired by JSNN with NC A&T as their home institution. Nanoscience faculty are faculty members hired by JSNN with UNCG as their home institution.
 
 
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.
 
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.
