2 North Carolina Central University

From the beginning, when it was known as the National Religious Training School and Chautauqua, its purpose has been the development of young men and women in character and sound academic training requisite for real service to the nation.

In 1915 the school was sold and reorganized, then becoming the National Training School.

In 1923 the General Assembly of North Carolina appropriated funds for the purchase and maintenance of the school. In that year it became a publicly

supported institution, and was renamed Durham State Normal School. Two years later, the General Assembly converted the institution into the North Carolina College for Negroes, dedicating it to the offering of liberal arts education and the preparation of teachers and principals of secondary schools. North Carolina College for Negroes became the nation’s first state-supported liberal arts college for African-American students. In 1947 the General Assembly changed the name of the institution to North Carolina College at Durham.

North Carolina College at Durham became North Carolina Central University in 1969. A momentous development in the history of higher education in North Carolina came on July 1, 1972, when the state’s four-year colleges and universities were joined to become The Consolidated University of North Carolina. The reconstituted University of North Carolina, with 16 individual campuses, was headed by a single president and governed by the UNC Board of Governors.

North Carolina Central University was chartered by Dr. James E. Shepard in 1909 as a private institution and opened to students on July 10, 1910.

The sloping hills, the verdant green, The lovely blossoms’ beauteous sheen Surround our college proud and gay,

Where wave our colors, Maroon and Gray.

What matters it how far we roam? Our thoughts will oft return to home,

And hearts will e’er be true to thee, Our Alma Mater, N.C.C.

Refrain: Then Rah! Rah! Rah! For our colors so gay!

Dear old N.C.C.’s Maroon and Gray; Thy sons and daughters will honor thee,

Dear old N.C.C.

We’ve gathered here to fit our lives, As from the darkness light revives, So let us hail, both night and day,

Our glorious colors, Maroon and Gray.

We’ll ever love and honor thee, For thou hast taught us loyalty.

Then let our watchword “service” be, To Alma Mater, N.C.C.

You send us forth with hearts of love; So like a blessing from above,

And from the path we’ll never stray, Our dear Alma Mater,

Maroon and Gray.

We’ll work and fight, we’ll win our way. When duty calls, we shall obey. And may we e’er return to thee,

Our Alma Mater, N.C.C!

NCCU has been educating men and women for over 100 years.

NCCU is the first among the North Carolina State universities to require community service for graduation and we have gained national recognition from the Carnegie Foundation as a community-engaged university.

U.S. News & World Report consistently ranks NCCU as one of the top public HBCUs.

NCCU ranks fourth among UNC System schools in sponsored research.

With two biotechnology research institutes, NCCU is emerging as a leader in the study of health disparities — significant differences in the quality of health and health care across racial, ethnic and socioeconomic groups.

In 2014, NCCU Men’s Basketball made its inaugural debut in the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament after winning the MEAC Championship.


WEEK OF WELCOMENew students begin their college experience with the Week of Welcome (WOW) in the fall. Various activities take place to help them make the transition to academic and social life. Students have a chance to meet faculty and staff and form friendships that could last a lifetime. Students will also participate in discussion groups and activities with the Eagle Reading Experience. The week is capped off at the Eagle Pinning Ceremony where new students receive their Eagle Wings.

More information is online at www.nccu.edu/firstyear.

FAMILY WEEKENDFamily Weekend is in early fall, usually within the first four to six weeks of the academic year. All Eagle family members are invited to NCCU for a weekend of festivities. Family Weekends typically include events such as a family tailgate, Second Steps Academic Recognition Ceremony, and a family pinning ceremony.

Visit www.nccu.edu/parents for more information.

NCCU HOMECOMINGReturn to the sloping hills and verdant green to celebrate Homecoming at NCCU. Alumni, parents and friends are invited to return “home” for a wonderful week of activities to reminisce on the times that make NCCU so special. Homecoming activities include concerts, alumni and friends socials, comedy shows, Homecoming Parade and the football game!

HONORS CONVOCATIONEach spring, NCCU recognizes all students who have achieved significant academic and artistic distinction at the Honors Convocation for Academic Achievement. National and international fellowships, internships, departmental honor societies and outstanding student awards in academics, athletics and community service are also recognized.


ASK QUESTIONS (BUT NOT TOO MANY)

Many college students think they are “cool” and may resent interference with their newfound independence. Most desire the security of knowing that you are still interested in their well-being.

Parental curiosity may add more stress than relief, depending on the attitudes of the persons involved. Try to avoid “I-have-a-right-to-know” tinged questions with ulterior motives or “the nag.” Honest inquiries, however, and the “between friends” communication and discussion will do much to strengthen the parent-student relationship.

DON’T ASK THEM IF THEY’RE HOMESICK

The power of suggestion can be dangerous. The idea of being homesick often doesn’t occur until someone suggests it.

The first few weeks of school are full of activities and friends. The challenge of meeting new people and adjusting to new situations takes most of a student’s time and concentration. So, unless they’re reminded of it, they may be able to escape the loneliness and frustration of homesickness. Even if they don’t tell you during those first few weeks, they do miss you.


WRITE OR SEND EMAIL (EVEN IF THEY DON’T WRITE OR EMAIL YOU BACK)

Although students are typically eager to experience all the away-from-home independence they can in those first weeks, most still yearn for family ties and the security those ties bring. This surge of independence may be misinterpreted as rejection by sensitive parents, but most students want some news of home and family. There’s nothing more disheartening than an empty mailbox. (Warning: don’t expect a reply to every letter or email you send)

And sometimes, it’s better to let them call you. Don’t call every day—just check-in when necessary, and encourage your student to solve his or her own problems before calling home.

DON’T WORRY (TOO MUCH) ABOUT PHONE CALLS, LETTERS OR EMAILS THAT ARE EMOTIONAL IN NATURE

Parenting can be a thankless job, especially during the college years. It’s a lot of give and only a little take. Often when troubles become too much for a first-year student to handle (a flunked test, end of a relationship and a shrunken T-shirt—all in one day), the only place to turn, write or call is home. Unfortunately, this is often the only time that an urge to communicate is felt so strongly, so you rarely get to hear about the “A” paper, the new relationship or the domestic triumph.

BE PATIENT WITH THAT NOTHING-IS-GOING-RIGHT-I-HATE-THIS-PLACE COMMUNICATION

You’re providing a real service as an advisor, sympathetic ear or punching bag. Granted, it’s a service that may not feel good to you, but it works wonders for a frustrated student.

VISIT (BUT NOT TOO OFTEN)

Visits by parents (especially those that include a shopping spree or dinner) are another part of first-year events that students may not admit they like, but do appreciate. Pretended disdain of these visits is just another aspect of the first-year syndrome. Plan the visits ahead of time—don’t just pop in unexpectedly as that has potential to cause problems! We recommend waiting at least 30 days for the visit to or from home.

IT’S ALL PART OF GROWING UP

The first year of college can be full of discovery, inspiration, good times and new friends. Students also can experience indecision, disappointments and mistakes. It will take time for some students to realize that making mistakes and being happy, sad, confused, liked and disappointed are all part of growing up.

Parents should understand that many college students do not earn good grades, know what major they want to study, have activity-filled days, or make lots of friends. But there are students who do experience these things. And there are many who undergo trials and hardships. Being college educated does not mean one is infallible. Parents who try to accept and understand their student’s experiences are providing support and encouragement when it is needed most.

DISCUSS FINANCES

Most college students are still financially dependent on parents to some degree. Discuss your family’s financial status with your son or daughter. Students need to know how much money will be available to them and how much of the fiscal responsibility is theirs.

PREPARE FOR THEIR RETURN

When the school year ends and your son or daughter returns home for vacation, plan to discuss the rules of living at home. Parents need to respect the individuality their children have worked hard to achieve, and students need to know there are rules and courtesies to follow.

Excerpt from the Orientation Directors Manual published by the National Orientation Directors Association and from “Putting Someone Through College” by Jerry O’Connor.


ACADEMIC COMMUNITY SERVICE LEARNING PROGRAM The Academic Community Service Learning Program (ACSLP) seeks to guide students, faculty and staff in meaningful community service and service learning. The students learn and develop through participation in defined activities that are designed to benefit the surrounding community. As a graduation requirement all undergraduate students are required to complete 120 hours of community service. We encourage students to complete 15 hours each semester to ensure they have the requirement completed by the end of their senior year.

STUDY ABROADEncourage your student to study abroad! Employers are now looking for graduates with cross-cultural skills, and study abroad provides them the opportunity to acquire these skills. Students can use financial aid towards study abroad and also apply for study abroad scholarships. Ask your student to contact the Office of International Affairs (OIA) by calling (919) 530-7912 or stopping by the office at 103 Lee Biology Building to set up an appointment with the study abroad advisor.

During New Student Orientation, students have their first meeting with an academic advisor in the University College. New first-year students and transfer students with freshman or sophomore classification enter the University College at North Carolina Central University and are required to meet with their academic advisors multiple times each semester. At the initial meeting, a review of the desired academic program, including the general education curriculum and general academic policies (academic progress, holds, schedules, grade point average, etc.), and the registration process take place.

The mission of the University College is to assure a successful transition of first year, second year and transfer students to the point that they become successful during their college matriculation. In addition to promoting the mission of the university as a whole, the University College will create a learning environment that fosters academic commitment, civic and community responsibility, school pride and life-long learning. After the second year, students are prepared to transfer from the University College into the academic program housing their majors.

RESOURCES FOR ACADEMIC SUCCESS

University College Academic Advising & Developmental and Supplemental LearningAlexander-Dunn BuildingAcademic Advising, (919) 530-6129Developmental and Supplemental Learning, (919) [email protected]

Academic advising is an integral component of the educational experience at NCCU. Students must meet with advisors multiple times per semester. An academic advising syllabus provides guidance in terms of the advising process, what the student needs to do to be successful in his or her academic pursuits, and campus policies and resources. Academic advisors are available to assist students in making course selections and to provide additional support, but the ultimate responsibility for each student’s success belongs to the student. The University expects students to become familiar with graduation requirements for their chosen major(s), to meet with their


academic advisors on a regular basis to discuss their academic progress, give their academic work the highest priority, and plan their course selections and sequences carefully. Meeting these expectations and forming a strong working relationship with an academic advisor can ensure success and graduation from NCCU.

Developmental and Supplemental Learning Support is available through the University College. All students have access to free tutoring, Supplemental Instruction (SI) and the University Writing Lab. Encourage your students to seek resources before a problem exists. For example, students should regularly attend SI sessions before an exam, in order to be more successful in class. Regular attendance has shown students’ grades increase by one-half to a whole letter grade compared to those who do not attend regularly.

Women’s CenterWomen’s CenterGeorge Street(919) [email protected]

What is a Women’s Center?

The Women’s Center works to offer advocacy, information, and academic and social programming for and about women and gender equity. The resources of the Women’s Center are available for use by both women and men. The Women’s Center is a place for women’s support and network groups to meet in a safe, supportive, confidential atmosphere. Women’s Center staff provides informal advising and consulting on advocacy issues for women, information and helpful referrals to important campus and community resources, and confidential support and assistance dealing with problems such as sexual and relationship violence.

Key Programs:

iLEAD: An initiative that strives to inspire and support women to become engaged, confident, and connected leaders in the NCCU community and beyond. iLEAD includes a speaker series with National and local speakers focused on gender-related topics.

HBCU HAVEN: An initiative that seeks to provide more streamlined, efficient, comprehensive culturally-competent services to members of the NCCU campus community who are victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence and stalking. HBCU HAVEN also aims to increase educational awareness for students, faculty and staff.

Student Involvement:

Student programs and organizations include:

• Annie Day Shepard Scholars – A four-year women’s leadership program for first-generation undergraduate women;
