Glad to know that it wasn't just me...lobengula, what da hell are you talking about man ? We are being played and bambozzled. Look at the School of Nanoengineering for instance why is UNC-G who has never had engineering is partnered with us. This is a trick to eliminate our being. We are talking about a new era in the global reality of mankind which little old A&T at the table which is upsetting to certain folk particularly the gate keepers, Ralph Bunch type folk Kamal Harris those folk. Maybe you may need to read The Choice by Samuel Yette to see where I am coming from. Personal attacks aside it is okay cause I understand the hate. The last printing of The Choice (1996) is going for $800.00 on Amazon. The original printing (1971) is going for $150.00. What does that tell you about the information in this classic look at the historical war against Black survival? It lays the political foundation for many things you see today. You can say that everything is part of "the war", many of us know that. Awareness is a prerequisite for action, but we still have to take action. There are currently 11 HBCUs that are classified as R2 institutions. There are zero R1 HBCUs. A&T and Morgan State are aggressively and publicly pursuing the highest research level. You are right in your assessment that the system does not want that to happen. Right now, the partnering with PWI institutions is one of those necessary hurdles. We are partnering with a number of research institutions such as Wake Forest, UNCG, Michigan State and others. Morgan State is having to do the same with schools like Johns Hopkins and University of Maryland just to get the funding. Sometimes the dollars come from special minority carve outs rather than standard research line items also which means it can easily be stricken. Seldom are we the lead on any of these joint projects either. None of that is fair, but it's never been fair for us. Nothing new. We have to plow through until the goalpost is moved again, and it will be. Until then we must continue to grow research dollars year over year and be diligent in the pursuit R1 status.

Gentlemen, let's get back to the original topic of this thread that Aggie2039 presented. I think we were having was a good dialogue.

I love athletics but the future of A&T is Engineering. And Dr. Martin can get us there if he doesn't have to spend too much time on distractions.

Gentlemen, let's get back to the original topic of this thread that Aggie2039 presented. I think we were having was a good dialogue. without getting into a senseless back and forth with an imp my point is that the so call powers that be have been and continue to be niggardly in the funding formula as it pertains to us. We have to take another approach that will enhance our efforts in this regard. For instance folk are upset and rightfully so about their gas bills cost. Why not our engineering schools in on this to bring a new perspective to debunk the current narrative in this regard.? Here we are seeing again the effects of disaster capitalism as well as finance capitalism in its efforts to control the people by imposing debt upon them. Are not there other alternative to this which could be addressed by our engineering schools in terms of communiversity.?

Morgan State is building a school of medicine why not other HBCUs collaborating with Morgan in terms of health disparities where in Baltimore one can find/buy a gun rather than a vegetable. Where is Tuskegee in this conversation who should be the lead among HBCUs? Perhaps we need tom collaborate with Africa, China Cuba etc . to enhance humanity.

Research collaboration with two sworn enemies of the United States? SMH… Do you know how quickly A&T will lose all funding from the state and feds? And will have leadership replaced for someone the GOP wants? The feds and state do not play man, A&T is there because they let it be… There is nothing stopping them from merging us with UNCG… Folks don’t care about public outcry, especially when they say it will save the state xxx$$$. Who cares who we collaborate with? It’s about the end result…

A&T aims to conduct research that will help equalize health outcomes across different groups of people. At its November meeting, the university’s Board of Trustees voted to establish the new Center of Excellence in Integrative Health Disparities and Equity Research. “We are a historically black college and A&T really has won trust among the African American community, and this is a community that bears a heavy burden of chronic and infectious disease,” Ongeri said. “So having this center and that trusted history, we are likely to have an impact in informing and influencing participation in research, including clinical trials.” Already, she said, university faculty are conducting relevant research on topics like diabetes, hypertension, HIV and dementia. “Those the areas we are going to continue to build,” she said.

The North Carolina Diabetes Research Center (NCDRC) is an interactive regional diabetes research community across four premiere research institutions in North Carolina, who currently garner over $70 million annually for support of their diabetes research: Duke University (Duke), The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC), Wake Forest School of Medicine (WF), and North Carolina A&T State University (NC A&T State). The American Diabetes Association estimates 53,000 people in North Carolina are diagnosed with diabetes every year. Minority populations are disproportionately affected by diabetes across the nation. African Americans are twice as likely to suffer from diabetes and diabetes-related disorders than their non-Hispanic Caucasian counterparts. According to the Centers for Disease Control’s recent National Diabetes Statistics Report, the incidence of new cases of type 2 diabetes among African American adolescents in 2015 was nearly eight times higher than non-Hispanic Caucasians. These institutions are focusing on issues that effect that black community and people are upset that A&T isn’t collaborating with other HBCUs…who cares? It’s about the end result, making conditions better for our community www.ncat.edu/news/2020/04/ncat-partners-awarded-nih-grant-diabetes-study.php

Who cares who we collaborate with? It’s about the end result… As I see it ; it was Nixon that open China door open to America most of the manufacturing have moved to China based upon business higher wages to American workers. Even in automobile technology, GM gave that technology to China. As far as Cuba their government has been serious in being referred to as the doctors of the world. In the early days of the COVID it was Cuba going into countries treating their people even treating people who were stuck at sea on cruise ship for which Trump administration refused to give too. So who is enemy to whom? During the Katrina matter it was Cuba who offered humanitarian aid that was rejected by the Bush administration. Fundamentally, we in a global world reality which we are in fact interdependent which must give us all pause to seek the sustainability of humanity rather rely upon certain Malthusians who seek to play God hence this global Pandemic for which it appears is reemerging. So if we are to partner with them we must always be mindful of our history Tuskegee study Henrietta Lacks. In reality are these collaborations sincere? My concern here is that in terms of this virus the gain of function must be understood in its entirety which basically began 1968 by a guy named Mahon from Texas who gave funding for germ warfare. I know that there are some on the plat form who would like nothing better but for the merger of A&T/UNC-G to take place. As I continue to see all that is taking place here in terms of restorative justice the costs will be too great to bear for which it is almost suicidal to do in that it would bankrupt this nation. Yet it do not have to be just do justice if America is to be redeem. Speaking of enemies what has Venezuela done to America? To continue to enforce that hackneyed treaty Monroe Doctrine is silly. Here is the reality for many refuse to acknowledge is that the colored peoples of the world are the majority of humanity; even here in America there is a a continual demographic shift which is and will continue to wreak havoc upon the fabric of this society do to the current majority population to maintain control rather than facing reality in a broken political system due primarily to ignorance. fundamentally

Me Every time...Every...Dayum...Time! Yep. It is a sad commentary to see those who are supposed to be educated yet possess a closed mind because they refuse to honor the age old idea of knowing one's self. It is such individuals who are more dangerous than the dope peddlers and those who seek fulfilment of their escapism.
