Check Out WHat Aggies Are Working On For The Upcoming Historic Sit In Movement Anniversary

Students at North Carolina A&T State University are putting together a blog paying homage to the historic events of the sit-in movement, February 1, 1960. Four brave young men, all students of A&T, marched into the Woolworth store and refused to move from the all-white lunch counter. Despite the segregation laws of the South, the A&T Four acts of civil disobedience sparked a movement of people seeking justice through their oppression.

You Have To Give To Get Back

Greensboro Urban Ministry here in Greensboro, N.C. is transforming the homeless community as well as struggling families with there wonderful services and volunteers. With the holiday season upon us, I wanted to put together a PSA from my visit to Urban Ministry. I hope it reminds us not to forget those who are not fortunate to enjoy the holidays like we do. Take the time to give back to your community this season. Happy Holidays everyone!

Dr. Styles Telling It Like It Is!

This time of the semester, students are either stressing finals or the anticipation of graduation. I have the pleasure of both. Graduation is my biggest issue however. I mean, there are so many questions and doubts that I have about whats next. I am pretty sure many can relate. I sat down with Dr. Teresa Styles of NC A&T SU's Journalism and Mass Communications Department. She shared her professional insight on the media industry that prospective graduates should be ready to get their feet wet in. Watch the interview below.
