Alumni Association Dissolution Update
|
| In an effort to forge a closer relationship with its more than 55,000 living alumni, North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University is creating more direct connections with its dozens of alumni chapters around the country. A formal review of the N.C. A&T State University Alumni Association Inc., resulted in a unanimous recommendation to dissolve the associated entity. The association will be replaced by an Alumni Advisory Council with direct relationship to university’s leadership and a chair appointed by the A&T Board of Trustees chairperson. The changes take effect July 23, 2020.

Bluford Library Archives: “A&T in the 1918 Flu Pandemic”
|
| North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University has faced many hard times over its 129 years of history: campus riots, crime, and protests, but few events quite like today’s COVID-19 pandemic. The last time our university faced a crisis, so large related to illness was the 1918 flu pandemic that devastated the world after World War I.
