North Carolina's Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) Prior to the conclusion of the Civil War in 1865, the majority of African Americans in the United States were enslaved persons living in the southern states. Education for African Americans was sparse, especially in the South with laws such as North Carolina's that prohibited teaching enslaved persons to read and write. It was a rare occurrence for an African American to be literate. While there were a few schools dedicated to African American education in the North prior to the Civil War, the first college available to African Americans in the South was Shaw University, which opened its doors in 1865. A number of institutions dedicated specifically for the education of African Americans were founded in the era immediately following the Civil War and others followed when segregation limited equal access to education. These schools are often known as Historically Black Colleges and Universities, or "HBCUs". North Carolina has twelve historically black colleges and universities, including the oldest in the South, Raleigh's Shaw University, founded in 1865, and North Carolina's newest HBCU, North Carolina Central University, founded in 1910 in Durham. Ten of these schools continue to operate today.

Your premium brand had better be delivering something special, or it's not going to get the business – Warren Buffet (n.d.). In an April 2006 editorial, New York Times columnist Stephan Budiansky recounted his research for a satirical novel set on the campus of a university. “The idea was to have a bunch of gags about how colleges prostitute themselves to improve their U.S. News & World Reports’ rankings and keep up a healthy supply of tuition-paying students while wrapping their craven commercialism in high-minded sounding academic blather.” Budiansky continued, “One of my best bits, or so I thought, was about how the fictional university . had hired a branding consultant to come up with a new name with the hip, possibility-rich freshness needed to appeal to today’s students. Two weeks later, a friend called to say it was on the front page of The Times: ‘To Woo Students, Colleges Choose Names That Sell’” (p.
