The new School of Education Building at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University will be named in honor of Chancellor James Carmichael Renick. During its Feb. 16th meeting, the North Carolina A&T State University Board of Trustees approved a resolution naming the building after Renick in appreciation for his exemplary leadership and outstanding contributions affecting the growth, development and transformation of A&T.

"This is a fitting tribute for a higher education visionary who has tangibly demonstrated his theme, "we are only limited by our imaginations," said Dr. Gerald Truesdale, chairman of the N.C. A&T Board of Trustees.
As A&T's chief executive officer, Dr. James Carmichael Renick was appointed the ninth Chancellor of A&T in July 1999. During his tenure, Renick's creative vision has propelled A&T to a new level as a doctoral/research intensive university.
"I am humbled by the board's decision," Renick said.
The $14-million Renick School of Education Building will be located at the intersection of Benbow Road and Bluford Street. Construction will begin early spring of 2006. The 60,000-square-foot facility will be high-tech, state-of-the-art and designed by the Freelon Group.
The School of Education provides bachelors, masters, and a new interdisciplinary leadership doctoral program for teachers, counselors, administrators, and educational professionals.
Presently, the School of Education is housed in Hodgin Hall across from Bluford Library on Laurel Street. Future plans for Hodgin are currently being discussed.

Hodgin needs to go the way of the old Scott Hall via a wrecking ball.
