a result of the 1890 Second
Morrill Act, North
Carolina Agricultural and
Technical State University was
established as the A&M college
for the "Colored Race" in 1891.
A group of Greensboro citizens
donated 14 acres of land for the
new college site and $11, 000 to
assist in the construction of
its buildings. The
college opened in Greensboro
during the fall of 1893 upon

N.C. A&T Broke
Ground on
Farm Pavilion Dan
Nonte |
GREENSBORO, N.C.
(June 28, 2018) –
The College of
Agriculture and
Environmental
Sciences at N.C. A&T
will hold a
groundbreaking at 9
a.m. Wednesday, July
11, for a $5 million
pavilion at the
University Farm,
3136 McConnell Road
in Greensboro. The
CAES Extension and
Farm Pavilion will
expand the farm’s
capacity for
education, research
and outreach.
Funded by USDA’s
National Institute
for Food and
Agriculture, the
17,000-square-foot
structure will
include an
auditorium,
laboratories, a
demonstration
kitchen, a 50-person
classroom and a
400-person
conference room.
“The University Farm
is ready for its
renaissance with the
start of the
pavilion,’’ says Dr.
Shirley
Hymon-Parker,
interim dean of the
CAES. “We’ve never
been dormant, but
breaking ground for
our new pavilion is
the first phase of a
four-part building
boom taking place at
the farm. This
growth will help us
fulfill our mission
to achieve
excellence in the
food, agricultural,
family and
environmental
sciences.” USDA-NIFA
will provide
financial support
for three additional
projects in the next
four years. The
subsequent projects
are an amphitheater,
student and
community gardens,
and a community and
urban food complex
with a dairy,
research labs,
classrooms and a
small business
incubator. The
University Farm was
created in 1904 to
provide food to the
fledgling
university’s
cafeteria. The
492-acre farm is now
the largest
classroom on campus,
a laboratory for
agricultural
research and a
showcase of the
latest farming
resources and
technology.
Continued
development at the
University Farm is
in keeping with
strategic goals of
the university and
the CAES to promote
excellence in
research, strengthen
community engagement
and outreach, and
foster
entrepreneurial
success. Facility

Letters expressed as “unacceptable funding inequities
have forced many of our
nation’s
distinguished Historically Black Colleges and
Universities to operate with
inadequate resources and delay critical investments in
everything from campus infrastructure to research and
development to student support services,” said U.S.
Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona. These
institutions and the talented,
diverse
students they serve must have equitable
funding in order to reach their full potential and
continue driving innovation. The Biden-Harris
Administration is proud to have made record investments
in our HBCUs, but to compete in the 21st century we need
state leaders to step up and live up to their legally
required obligations to our historically Black
land-grant institutions.”

Letter
stated, 1862 land-grant universities were founded
through the First Morrill Act of 1862 which provided
states with federal land that could be sold to support
the colleges.
Under the Second Morrill Act of 1890, states choosing
to open a second land-grant university to serve
Black students
were required to provide an equitable distribution of
state funds between their 1862 and 1890 land-grant
institutions. Emphasis added |
|
Addressed
to Governor Roy Cooper, North Carolina A & T State
University, the 1890 land-grant institution in your
state, while producing extraordinary graduates that
contribute greatly to the state’s economy and the fabric
of our nation, has not been able to advance in ways that
are on par with North Carolina State University at
Raleigh, the original Morrill Act of 1862 land-grant
institution in your state, in large part due to
unbalanced funding. Unquotable funding of the 1890
institution in your state has caused a severe financial
gap, in the last 30 years alone, an additional $2,079,934,848 would
have been available for the university. |

Whereas under the
Second Morrill Act of 1890, states choosing to open a
second land-grant university to serve Black students.
The upshot is whether U.S.
Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona and U.S. Secretary
of Agriculture Thomas Vilsack are complicit or aiding
and abetting violations of the U.S. Constitution's
Fourteenth Amendment and Title VI of the Civil Rights
Act of 1964 by continuing to distribute federal funds to
the 16 states whose governors were notified of the over
$12 billion disparity in funding between land-grant
Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and
their non-HBCU land-grant peers in their states. |

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. |
