They went over by about 215 out of state freshman. Thats about 2.3$ more million. They only got fined 2$ million. Not only that, but half them going to be paying out of state for 4 years. A&T came out on top for technically cheating, LOL.

The State Cut $2 million from This HBCU's funding Because The school Is Too popularNorth Carolina A&T University is having seven-figures in funding stripped away by the state’s legislature in a move that some say equates to the state punishing the HBCU for its success at attracting students. The funding move stems from the rules governing funding of state universities in North Carolina that are designed to ensure that in-state students aren’t shut out of a competitive admissions process. The rules call for limits on the percentage of out-of-state students in each class, and were mostly intended for larger schools in the North Carolina system, such as UNC Chapel Hill, which has nearly 25,000 students. North Carolina A&T has about half that, with just over 13,000 students, about 11,000 of which are full time. But lately, the campus has seen an influx of interest and applications, part of a wave of renewed interest in HBCUs broadly. The result is that the current freshman class went over its limit for out-of-state students—by 171 enrollees. That triggered the University of North Carolina System’s Board of Governors to vote to decrease funding for the campus in the current fiscal year by $1,976,546. www.yahoo.com/news/state-cut-2-million-hbcus-203629564.html

This should also fuel a few Aggies in the State House to vote to overturn the BOG's ruling or push for our Land Grant funding.

At this point there needs to be some secret meetings behind the scenes like the sit ins. And there needs to be an article about it in every A&T magazine updating progress. Nothing wrong with that, right?
This whole thing sounds like an Onion Newspaper headline:
State stiffs school billions of dollars, state board of governors votes unanimously to fine school two million dollars

Not saying this relates to us in any way, but I did find it interesting. North Carolina Gov. Cooper appoints new team to review leadership in the UNC systemRALEIGH, N.C. (WGHP) – At least three people with connections to the Piedmont Triad have been named by Gov. Roy Cooper to a commission to study the governance of the public universities in North Carolina. Cooper announced on Wednesday he had established the 14-person commission through an executive order to look at how public schools in North Carolina – not just the UNC system – are being governed. The UNC College Board, for instance, has been increasingly controlled by the General Assembly in recent years and most recently has struggled with its process of hiring chancellors. Cooper said in announcing the Governor’s Commission on the Governance of Public Universities in North Carolina that his motivation was to address leadership. The board has 24 members who are appointed by the General Assembly, with Randall C. Ramsey serving as its chair. The UNC system’s president is Peter Hans, who took over in August 2020 to oversee the 16 institutions. “It’s clear that leaders across our state, and across the political spectrum, care deeply about our remarkable university system and want these institutions to thrive,” Cooper said. myfox8.com/news/north-carolina/north-carolina-gov-cooper-appoints-new-team-to-review-leadership-in-the-unc-system/
