  HBCU
institution North Carolina A&T,
one of the state's two land grant institutions, has programs through
the 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 members of the
Greensboro business community.

NCGS § 116-198.34. (8b) says in part “The designation should be
based on the express finding that the institution has the
administrative and fiscal capacity to create and maintain such a
campus, and provided further, that the Board of Governors has found
that the creation of the constituent institution's "Millennial
Campus" will enhance the institution's research, teaching, and
service missions as well as enhance the economic development of
the region.” A&T is known for its engineering and agricultural
programs and UNCG’s background is nursing and the humanities “

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

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.]

505 U.S. 717 (1992) a
United States Supreme
Court case that resulted
in an eight to one
ruling that the eight
public universities in
Mississippi had not
sufficiently integrated
and that the state must
take affirmative action
to change this under the
Equal Protection Clause
and Title VI. This
is not a legal setting
but context comparison UNC
BOG & SOCS policies in
light of the selected
text held in UNITED
STATES v. FORDICE,
GOVERNOR OF
MISSISSIPPI :
|
|
..If the State
perpetuates policies and
practices traceable to
its prior de jure dual
system that continue to
have segregative effects
...implicit in the
court’s finding of
“unnecessary”
duplication is the
absence of any
educational
justification ....and
such policies are
without sound
educational
justification and can be
practicably eliminated,
implicated the Equal
Protection clause... ,

UNC Policy Manual 400.1.1.[G]
A degree program is a program of study in a discipline specialty that leads to a degree in that distinct specialty area at a particular level of instruction. As a general rule, in order to be considered for degree program status, a course of study should require at least 27 semester hours in the proposed program area at the undergraduate level; at least half the number of hours required for the degree at the master’s level; and at least 21 hours in the proposed program area at the doctoral level. [Adopted 05/06/09] Emphasis added |

Doctor of Philosophy in Nanoscience
|
| The PhD in Nanoscience requires a minimum of 60 hours and is designed to prepare students to take positions in industrial, governmental, or academic research settings by providing a solid background in Nanoscience theory and experimental techniques through course work and dissertation research. UNC Policy Manual 400.1.1.[G]
A degree program is a program of study in a discipline |

| NCA&T was 4th in Funding in Nanotechnology Research at North Carolina Universities with $11 Million Dollars between 2000-2005. UNC at Greensboro 10th among the 11 institutions conducted $45,000 dollars of Nanotechnology research between 2000 thru 2005. |

Requests to UNC-GA for a UNCG Request to Plan a PhD and Request to Establish a standalone PhD in Nanoscience proscribed by UNC Guidelines for Academic Program Development subsection (B) related to degree authorization Ms. Joni Worthington (UNC-GA) Vice President for Communications UNC General Administration responded to a public record request for a UNCG Chancellor signed request to plan and establish a PhD in Nanoscience said: “Dr. Alan Mabe in his capacity as Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs determined:
· UNCG was not required to submit a new request to plan a Ph.D. in Nanoscience. The joint proposal submitted by UNCG and NCA&T was deemed sufficient for the campus to move forward with planning a stand-alone degree program.
· UNCG was not required to submit a new request to establish a Ph.D. in Nanoscience. The joint request submitted by UNCG and NCA&T, which had already been recommended for approval by the UNC Graduate Council, was deemed sufficient for Board consideration. The Board of Governors concurred with that determination in approving the establishment of the program. (E-mail 10.08. 2010) “ |
| Contradicting assertions Dr. Mabe in the capacity of Senior VP for Academic Affairs etc., are Board approved Guidelines for Academic Program Development subsection (B.) Academic Program Development Requiring Authorization or Action Beyond the Campus Level, which says The chancellors of the constituent institutions shall communicate to General Administration of the University their intentions or requests with respect to instructional program development for Request for authorization to plan a new degree program at the doctoral or first professional level and Request for authorization to establish a new degree program.

Dr. James Sadler Associate Vice President for Academic Planning University of North Carolina :
December 9, 2009
UNC Graduate Council recommends authorization of the joint PhD. |
Notwithstanding the National Center for Educational Statistics (NCES), categorized Nanoscience as CIP 15.1601 Engineering Technologies and Engineering-Related Fields. UNC General Administration applied CIP 40.9999 (Physical Science) to UNCG academic offering . Note UNC-G has a School of Arts and Science. |
 |
|
Erskine Bowles UNC General Administration categorizing Nanoscience Ph.D. as a Physical Science; examining UNC Greensboro curricula for similar Physical Science Ph.D. programs determined: |
 |
|
UNC Greensboro offer no similar Ph.D. programs in 40 CIP category. |
|
|
 |
| The Erskine Bowles Administration employed General Administration authority to receive Request for authorization to Establish and make recommendation to BOG Planning Committee, complicit with BOG Planning Committee and Harold Martin as Chancellor of NC A&T to force NC A&T out of JSNN mission to offer Nanoscience degrees. |
| |
|
|
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.
 |
| 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 Nanoscience degrees? |

Alleged, Dr. Belle Wheelan SACS Commission on Colleges, letter dated June 25, 2010 to Dr. Alton Thompson (NCA&T) and Dr. David H. Perrin (UNCG), "We approve the M.S. and Ph.D. degree programs in Nanoscience, shall include them within the scope of accreditation previously granted to the University of North Carolina at Greensboro” |
