The Blue & Gold Marching Machine of North Carolina A&T State University has joined nearly 5,000 student-musicians from 45 Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) in taking their first steps on "The Road to the Honda," in hopes of being one of the eight lucky bands slated to finish their journey in Atlanta, Ga., at the 2010 Honda Battle of the Bands Invitational Showcase.

The Honda Battle of the Bands (HBOB) Invitational Showcase, scheduled to take place Sat., Jan. 30, 2010 at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, is the world's largest and most highly anticipated HBCU musical event of its kind. The Invitational Showcase not only serves as a platform to highlight and showcase the heritage and showmanship of the HBCU college marching bands, but it also serves as the only national music scholarship program of its kind. For the 2010 program, the A&T Blue & Gold Marching Machine is among the 45 participating bands that will receive a $1,000 grant for their musical programs, with an additional $20,000 awarded to the eight institutions selected to advance to the 2010 Invitational Showcase.(Read More)

Ethnic Variations in Cancer: Prevention, Diagnosis and the search for a cureThe Biology Department is excited to announce that the Twelfth Life and Physical Sciences Research Symposium at North Carolina A&T State University will occur on Friday February 26, 2010. The theme for this year’s program is, Ethnic Variations in Cancer:  Prevention, Diagnosis and the Search for a Cure.

Since its inception, the primary goal of the symposium is to provide a venue for researchers from across disciplines at the university and at various institutions throughout the state to present their research in a public forum.  The objectives of the symposium are 1) to provide a forum for networking and scientific exchange between faculty scientists and students with researchers on and off the campus 2) to profile the achievements of students and to inspire them to pursue biomedical research and scientific research careers and 3) to inform the community about health disparities issues.

FACULTY AND STAFF IN THE COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES
A professor at N.C. A&T is among more than 100  who will be recognized at the White House today for their excellence in the teaching of math and science and mentoring.

Goldie S. Byrd will receive the Presidential Award for Excellence in Science, Mathematics and Engineering Mentoring. She is the Nathan F. Simms Endowed Distinguished Professor of Biology at A&T.

The awards program is part of President Barack Obama's Educate to Innovate campaign. The president plans to announce today new campaign partnerships to forward his goal of increasing students achievement in math and science during the next decade.

The new chairperson of the Department of Foreign Languages, Dr. Jose Bravo de Rueda, seeks to combine teaching of languages with teaching of culture. Ongoing community service outreach efforts and a special cross-campus initiative this fall exemplify his vision.

Born in Lima, Peru, Bravo de Rueda moved to the U.S. in 1989 and attended the University of Maryland, where he received his master’s and Ph.D. In 1995, Bravo de Rueda was hired as an adjunct instructor at North Carolina A&T State University.  Since then, he has gained experience of how the department works; networking with other chairpersons and friends also gave him insight on how to do the job.
