gain of approximately 4,647 active-duty soldiers, 1,893 civilian jobs with the Army, 616 embedded contractors, 1,000 to 3,000 jobs with private defense contractors, and $1.5 billion additional construction expenditures.

In response to BRAC, the BRAC

Regional Taskforce Force (RTF) was formed among 11 contiguous county governments including Cumberland County, and the 72 municipalities in the “BRAC RTF” region. The members of this organization, which includes FSU, were charged with planning and preparing for the BRAC transfer and its impact on the region related to education, workforce and economic development, housing, and transportation.

As FSU’s lead representative, Dr. Curtis Charles has involved the campus in collaborating with the BRAC RTF leadership on how FSU can reengineer its academic programs and certificate offerings to be in line with the strategic priorities of the military at Ft. Bragg and Seymour-Johnson Air Force Bases. To achieve this outcome, FSU is developing a suite of interdisciplinary academic programs such as a B.S. in Intelligence Studies, Certificate in Homeland Security, M.A. in Environmental Studies, M.A. in International Studies, and a M.A. in Public Administration. All of these proposed programs are consistent with the initiatives of UNC Tomorrow and thus will address the needs of the state as well as the military. Collaboration with FSU and BRAC RTF also includes the FSU/UNCP Electron Microprobe project; the development of business internship programs for FSU students and entrepreneurship programs for rural municipalities; writing joint proposals for Department of Defense projects; and initiating some agricultural and sustainable development projects.

The Foundation of Excellence (FOE) self-study project was launched to assess data on student success and methods of improving instruction. Over 130 faculty and staff participated in FOE workshops and discussions. Students also have been enjoined to foster success through the Bronco Student Ambassador Program by assisting with tours, with student recruitment, and other campus events. The Bronco Men program placed emphasis on personal development and recruitment of males.

The Saturday Academy for Teaching and Learning was established and over 300 faculty members participated in 109 Webcast seminars and 113 workshops during the year.

Workshops with renowned scholars on and off campus included: Strengthening Effective Teaching Strategies with a Focus on Teaching to the Objective; Authentic Assessment; The Learner: What Motivates Them to Maximize Their Potential?; Black Males in the Academy: Fostering the Success of African American Males in Higher Education, Part 1 and 2; Learning from Students So We Can Help Them to Succeed; and, Retention Best Practices and Replication at Xavier University.

FSU ranked third among the 16 UNC higher education institutions for online Student Credit Hours (SCH) for the 2006–2007 academic year, which was reported in 2007-2008. FSU should maintain that position for the 2007–2008 academic year as enrollments have increased each semester. Faculty members developed 37 new online classes.

The Office of Institutional Effectiveness and Title III managed the 2007-2008 Title III undergraduate programs and related funding of over $3.6 million. Plans are underway to prepare for reaffirmation of accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools regional accrediting body in 2011. Workshops and meetings were held with departments to explain their responsibilities, and the accreditation team and administrative structure have been proposed.

The Office of International Education focused on opportunities to infuse international perspectives throughout the community, expand exchange and study-abroad programs, and increase the number of international students studying at FSU. The unit prepared and sent three (3) students to study in China, Mexico, and Australia. Also as noted, our Fulbright Scholar and six Fulbright graduate teaching assistants greatly enhanced our international exchanges.

The Office of Sponsored Research reported the following funding for 20072008: •

Proposals submitted to external funding agencies: 72

•

Funded amount: $1,553,343.00

•

Pending amount: $7,726,758.86

•

Not funded amount: $7,415,615.64

•

Total requested amount: $16,690,717.40

*Figures will not total correctly as amounts contain continuation amounts from previous grants.

The Office of Sponsored Research coordinated the Department of Defense’s National Outreach and Observance Program for African American History Month 2008 at FSU. This was the first time FSU had been selected for this national distinction.

The Charles Chesnutt Library experienced an all-time high patronage and circulation of library resources. A major event for the year was the hosting of the unveiling of the Charles W. Chesnutt Stamp in January 2008. The Library was awarded a $60,000 grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation for the HBCU Photograph Preservation Project, and was designated as one of eight participants in the $895,000 North Carolina 16.

Conclusion

The 2007-2008 academic year was one of

transition and achievement for Fayetteville State University. Dr. Lloyd V. Hackley, a familiar face whose previous leadership catapulted the institution to new heights, was welcomed back to lead the university through this period of transition. UNC Tomorrow, PACE, and BRAC are new initiatives helping to mold the direction of the university. A new leader for 2008, Dr. James A. Anderson, brings a vision of making FSU the university of first choice for students, not only throughout our region, but throughout our state, nation, and the world.

As Fayetteville State University enters its 142nd year, the university’s motto “Res Non Verba – Deeds Not Words” resounds louder than ever; the vision of the seven founders remains alive and well; and Fayetteville State University will continue to serve the purpose for which it was founded – providing a quality education and to serve the citizens of this region and state.
