Move-in day for students. I was a volunteer through my church, which we have been doing for some years. We helped to facilitate a smooth move-in on a sunny day. We assisted in moving things to one of the halls, served water to ease the stress of climbing up to go to the halls. Breakfast and pizzas for lunch. We also shared care packs, which contained lip balm, cup, foot and hand cream to students. -
The best University in the world. Professors that care and just a great place for learning and growth for minds that want to soar like an Eagle. This is where Eagle Pride is amplified. Academics, athletes, and service. This university is the heart of Durham. From Law to Business to Education and much much more! -

Great college. Had an amazing time at graduation. When you think HBCU, you think NCCU. Looking forward to good things and the bright futures that they have produced.
