    Published on NCpedia (https://ncpedia.org) Home > North Carolina's Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) North Carolina's Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) [1] Share it now! 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.

This letter is a summary of the various Zoom meetings where we shared this news before Thanksgiving with students, families, faculty, staff and alumnae. A reminder: for students who have special circumstances please be in contact with Dean Kimberley Drye-Dancy. As President, I am not only responsible for supporting the education, training, and leadership skills of women attending Bennett but also ensuring the health and safety of all students, faculty, and staff. The COVID pandemic poses one of the most significant threats to us at this time. I have consulted with National and Global Public Health experts, including those from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the NC Department of Health and Humans Services, the Guilford County Health Department, and our own alumna and Social Epidemiologist Dr Sharelle Barber to understand the best medical information on the coronavirus, the public health implications of COVID, and what we know about prevention, treatment, and care. In addition to those consultations, VP Hurd and I meet weekly with other Guilford higher education institutions and the county health department and Ms Francois and I meet one-on-one weekly with the lead doctor and nurse from the county health department.

  • Historically Black College and University Capital Financing Program
    HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY CAPITAL FINANCING ADVISORY BOARD Executive Director’s Report Advisory Board Meeting December 2, 2017 Madam Chair and members of the Board, I am pleased to present my report on the Historically Black College and University (HBCU) Capital Financing Program. BARBER SCOTIA UPDATE The Designated Bonding Authority (DBA) released a Request for Information (RFI) for Barber Scotia College in November 2017, and responses are due by December 20, 2017. An RFI is a document that will give the DBA an idea of what interested potential developers or other purchasers may have in the campus or buildings on the campus. To date, there has been one visit from a developer and two more are scheduled including a possible partnership with Barber Scotia. Barber Scotia, located in Concord, North Carolina, received a HBCU Capital Financing Program loan for $7 million on December 6, 2000. In 2004, Barber Scotia lost its accreditation with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, making the institution ineligible for Federal Student Aid under HEA, Title IV, which affected over 90 percent of Barber Scotia’s students. The resulting drop in enrollment left Barber Scotia unable to repay its HBCU Capital Financing Program loan. Since September 2005, Barber Scotia’s bond payments have been made using funds deposited in the escrow account by other Program participants. The current outstanding principal balance is about $4.7 million. However, the balance is much larger when factoring the repayment of other borrowers, which to date is $6.4 million ($257,328 x 25). A-123 RISK ASSESSMENT and RESPONSE The HBCU Capital Financing Program responded to the Department’s Risk Management Group’s questionnaire for the Office of Management and Budget Circular A.
