Page 2: 08-09 Annual Report

“Our mission is to provide

students with the highest

quality learning experiences

that will produce global

citizens and leaders as change

agents for shaping the future

of the state and the nation.

We are no longer preparing

students to simply obtain

college degrees but to procure

competitive degrees that

reflect success in and across

academic disciplines and in

the presence of 21st century

competencies.”

A New Beginning

Returning to North Carolina is like returning home, since my

parents were native North Carolinians and I served at North

Carolina State for over a decade. I am deeply grateful to have

this opportunity to serve, and I accept the challenge of leading FSU with

its great historical legacy and its promise for an even greater future. A

milestone in this historical legacy was reached this year with the 100th

anniversary of FSU on Murchison Road. Having outgrown the Howard

School building on Gillespie Street by 1896, E. E. Smith sought a permanent

home where the institution could grow and finally settled on the Bruner

Tract of about 40 acres of land here on Murchison Road in August 1907. A

brochure proudly announced the opening of the 1908-09 school year with

one new brick building, the Aycock Building. And, one hundred years later,

with 135 acres and 40 buildings, I am proud to be the Chancellor at FSU.

The future is calling.

The Future is Calling: Reaffirming the Bronco LegacyWelcome Dr. James A. Anderson, Chancellor

Dr. James A. Anderson became the eleventh chief executive officer

of Fayetteville State University upon his installation as Chancellor

on April 3, 2009. Raised in Washington, D.C, he earned a bachelor’s

degree in psychology from Villanova University in 1970, and a

Ph.D. degree in 1980 from Cornell University. Anderson chaired

the Department of Psychology at Xavier University in New Orleans

(1976-1983) before joining Indiana University of Pennsylvania as a

professor of psychology (1983-1992). In 1992 he began his eleven-

year tenure as Vice Provost and Dean for Undergraduate Affairs at

North Carolina State University where he developed many program

initiatives including the First Year College, the Honors Programs, the

Faculty Center for Teaching and Learning, the Minority Engineering

Program, and the North Carolina State Diversity Initiative. Having

served as Vice President and Associate Provost for Institutional

Assessment and Diversity at Texas A&M University (2003-2005),

he left to become the Vice President for Student Success and Vice

Provost for Institutional Assessment and Diversity at the University

at Albany (2005-2008) before assuming his duties at FSU on June

9, 2008. He has made numerous scholarly presentations and is the

author of many publications, including his renowned work Driving

Change Through Diversity and Globalization: Transformative

Leadership in the Academy. He is married to Nancy Anderson and

they have three adult children.

Salute To James A. Anderson from the Cabinet

April 2, 2009

To Chancellor James A. Anderson,

You share a legacy of one hundred and forty-two years and ten chief executive officers at FSU, spanning the 19th, 20th, and now the 21st century. You share the idealism and tenacity of Harris, the hopes of Williams, the intellect of Chesnutt and Seabrook, the expansionism of Smith and Lyons, the academic program growth of Jones, the new era of excellence of Hackley, the communiversity and Bronco Pride of McLeod, the dreams of Bryan, and the interim stewardship of Fairley, Benson, and Hackley.

And now in this 21st century, The Future has called you, James A. Anderson, to lead FSU. As members of your Cabinet, we share your commitment to a collective vision for FSU, to shared leadership, to team building, collaboration, diversity, community outreach, globalization, student empowerment, academic excellence, and to continuous improvement. We know that with your transformational leadership you will carry FSU to greatness.

We, the members of the Cabinet, Salute you, Chancellor James A. Anderson

The FUTURE is now… “Res non verba.”

Fayetteville State University

Fayetteville, North Carolina

Page 5: 08-09 Annual Report

“I have a belief in those who call the city of Fayetteville home, who call

Cumberland County home, who call North Carolina home, and who

call Fayetteville State University home. Over the rainbow is our destiny,

the realization of our vision, the confirmation of our legacy. Join me in

this journey. I will not fail you, we will not fail each other and we will

continue to establish Fayetteville State University as one of the great

institutions in this nation.”

It was truly a humbling experience on April 3, 2009 to be

installed as the eleventh chief executive officer of Fayetteville

State University. The welcoming presence of so many students,

faculty, friends, and guests reinforced my commitment to the

legacy of those leaders who preceded me and to our greater

vision for the future. President Erskine Bowles presided over

the installation, and two of my mentors- Reverend Peter

Donahue, President of Villanova University and Chancellor

James Oblinger of North Carolina State University spoke. Other

participants included Hannah Gage, Chair of the Board of

Governors of the University of North Carolina; the Honorable

Patricia Timmons-Goodson, Associate Justice North Carolina

State Supreme Court; James Jefferson, President FSU Student

Government Association, and Trustee; and Gloria Moore

Carter, Chair, FSU Board of Trustees. With the powerful musical

renditions by the FSU choir and band, I knew that I was “Home.”

The installation ceremony was the highlight of three days of

activities which included an ecumenical unity service, choir

concert, faculty/student symposium, and a health walk. The

combination of the reception hosted by Mayor Anthony

Chavonne and Mrs. Joanne Chavonne following the installation,

and the powerful oratory of Dr. Algeania Freeman, ‘70 on

Founder’s Day, April 5, confirmed James A. Anderson, as the

official Chancellor of FSU.

Institutional Effectiveness and Strategic Planning Through team building and collaboration with administrators,

faculty, staff and students, as well as the community, FSU has laid

the foundation for shaping our response to the call of the future.

We are no longer preparing students to simply obtain college

degrees but to procure competitive degrees for the 21st Century as

reflected in our mission statement and the recommendations of

the UNC Tomorrow Commission. As such, I have asked for FSU’s

commitment to six strategic priorities:

• FSU will be a university of choice in North Carolina and

the nation and will garner a reputation for innovation and

excellence in teaching, learning, research and technology.

• FSU will be a leader in the economic transformation of the

southeastern region of North Carolina.

• FSU will be an intellectual and cultural center that sustains a

climate of excellence.

• FSU will distinguish itself in the preparation of leaders in all

disciplinary fields and co-curricular programs. Our students

will achieve and compete in the global economy.

• FSU will increase access to education in North Carolina

through expanded partnerships and collaborative efforts.

• FSU will demonstrate fiscal integrity and resourcefulness and

will develop a blueprint for economic sustainability.

A major step towards making these priorities operational has been

the development of FSU’s Strategic Plan 2009-2014 by the Strategic

Planning Committee. This committee included twenty-eight

representatives from the FSU Board of Trustees, administrators,

faculty, staff, and students. The plan will be updated on an annual

basis and will maintain our commitment to our core values of

student success and the pursuit of excellence, shared governance,

global responsibility, and collaboration. It will enable the university

to carry out its primary mission of providing students with the

highest quality learning experiences that will produce global

citizens and leaders as change agents for shaping the future of

the State.

UNC Tomorrow Responses Phase II and Revised Mission StatementResponding to the UNC Tomorrow recommendations, we examined

various policies and procedures, academic programs, and our mission

statement in determining how FSU will increase its capacity to meet the

needs of southeastern North Carolina. Policies on faculty evaluation,

promotion and tenure, and retention of faculty were revised to reflect

the changing needs of FSU. Eleven new academic programs are being

considered as well as a number of certificate programs to meet workforce

needs. Non-productive and low enrollment programs were eliminated

as part of our commitment to accountability. Looking to its future, FSU’s

mission statement was revised to reflect changes in degree programs and

outreach activities which had already occurred, as well as those which

were being proposed. The revised Mission Statement for FSU is as follows:

Fayetteville State University is a public comprehensive regional university that promotes the educational, social, cultural, and economic transformation of southeastern North Carolina and beyond. The primary mission of FSU is to provide students with the highest quality learning experiences that will produce global citizens and leaders as change agents for shaping the future of the state. Awarding degrees at the baccalaureate and master’s levels, and the doctorate in educational leadership, FSU offers programs in teacher education, the arts and sciences, health professions, business and economics, and unique and emerging fields. FSU is an institution of opportunity and diversity. Committed to excellence in teaching, research, scholarship, and service, the university extends its services and programs to the community, including the military, and other educational institutions throughout North Carolina, the nation, and the world.

Thus, the changing needs and demographics of the southeastern

region of North Carolina, Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC), the

recommendations of UNC Tomorrow, our history, and the strategic

priorities of FSU have helped to shape our mission statement and our

future as a premiere institution of choice in the nation.

SACS ReaccreditationWe are also in the process of a comprehensive assessment of institutional

effectiveness with regard to the operation of all aspects of the university.

An on-campus visit by a team from the Commission on Colleges of

the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACSCOC) will be

conducted in the spring of 2011. Our SACS Liaison Office, led by Dr.

Marion Gillis-Olion, has been established and we have begun the process

for completing the required SACS Compliance Audit. FSU must submit

its Criteria Compliance Report by September 2010, prepare for an off-site

peer review in November 2010, prior to the on-campus visit in spring

2011. Reaffirmation of FSU’s SACS reaccreditation will be announced in

December 2011.

Page 8: 08-09 Annual Report

Community Engagement and BRACStrengthening community ties by building new coalitions,

establishing new partnerships, and solidifying relationships with

community agencies has been a major thrust for the university.

The university has strengthened ties with national funding

agencies, state and federal legislators, city officials, charitable

organizations, and still serves as part of the leadership team

for the Greater Fayetteville Futures II Project. Faculty and staff

engagement enabled FSU to sign memorandums of understanding

with E.E. Smith High School, and partnership agreements with

Fayetteville Technical Community College and UNC Pembroke.

The community embraced the Chancellor’s Speakers Series, which

adopted a thematic approach for inquiry during a year of political

activism, featuring Roland Martin and Michael Steele in October,

and Donna Brazile in November. The university has strengthened

its partnership with both the Arts Council and the Fayetteville

Symphony.

FSU has positioned itself to take the leadership role in BRAC

initiatives for the southeastern region of North Carolina. BRAC RTF

(Base Realignment and Closure-Regional Task Force) 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, are planning

and preparing for the BRAC transfer and its impact on the region

as related to education, workforce and economic development,

housing, and transportation. FSU will be the lead institution in the

establishment of the Center for Defense and Homeland Security,

which will be a major collaborative effort with the U.S. Department

of Defense, Fayetteville Technical Community College and other

area community colleges, some member UNC institutions, BRAC

RTF, and Fort Bragg.

Chancellor for a DayCongruent with our mission to develop students as leaders, we

launched the “Chancellor for a Day Program” in October of 2008 to

enable students to gain a better understanding of the day-to-day

operations of the University by shadowing the Chancellor for one

day. Jasmine Aljuwani, a junior elementary education major from

Charlotte, was the first student selected to serve on December 4,

2008; Matthew Wynne, a senior social science education major

from Fayetteville, served on February 4, 2009; and Yikang Bai, a

graduate student and Fulbright Scholar from Shandong University,

China, served on April 15, 2009. All students stated that they

had gained a greater understanding of the complexities of the

administration of the University, and as Bai noted, “Chancellor

for a Day also makes me realize that the sound operation and

management of a university requires the positive attitude and hard

work of every faculty member and staff.”

IssuesIssues related to the Nursing program and the state of our fiscal

affairs have been of some concern for us. As we seek to produce

excellence in all academic programs, the B.S. in Nursing has been

temporarily suspended to make program improvements and to

focus on the RN-BSN program. Budget adjustments, of a more than

7% reversion by the state, resulted in a hiring freeze, faculty and staff

reductions, and cessation of expenditures for supplies, travel, and

services. Additionally there was a .5% statewide reduction of wages

for all employees. Audit findings in business and finance for 2007-

08 have been reduced from 14 to 2.

Academic AffairsThe Division of Academic Affairs made great strides in enrollment, in improving instructional outcomes, in program development, with national recognition

and accreditation of programs, expanded faculty development activities, and increased global awareness for faculty and students. Collaborative efforts

were greatly enhanced through five new partnerships with international institutions, and the establishment of the Southeastern North Carolina Regional

Microanalytical and Imaging Center (SENCRMIC) with UNC-Pembroke. Significant progress included:

• Enrollment Data. Enrollment for the fall 2008 was 6,217, of which 5,602 were

undergraduates with 582 being freshmen. The profile of the new freshmen

GPA increased to 2.87 and the SAT to 865, up from 2.77 and 846 in fall 2007.

The largest number of undergraduate majors were in education (579), and

in Business Administration (479). Of the 615 graduate students, the largest

numbers were in education (181), and in social work (96). Blacks comprised

72%, Whites 17%, Hispanic 4% and others about 7% of the student population.

• Graduation Data. There were 927 graduates; 773 bachelors, 145 Masters, and

9 doctorates. Major undergraduate degrees granted were 117 in Criminal

Justice; 116 in Psychology, 99 in teacher education, and 87 in Business

Administration. At the graduate level there were 38 for Master of Social Work,

32 for Master of Education, 31 for the Master of School Administration and 9

for the Doctorate in Educational Leadership.

• FSU’s CHEER Summer Bridge Program provided an intensive program of

instruction and academic support for incoming first-time students. Of the

207 participants, 203 (97%) completed the first year and consistently out-

performed their non-CHEER counterparts in hours earned and GPA, even

though their test scores and high school GPAs were generally lower upon

entry. FSU’s CHEER Program has been designated as a model for the

UNC system.

• There were 64 graduates in the first senior class of FSU’s Cross Creek Early

College High School, which is the greatest number of graduates in programs

like this in North Carolina. Thirty-two of these graduates enrolled in FSU

in fall 2008. The School of Education collaborates with Cross Creek Early

College High School, which was named a Learning Laboratory Initiative (LLI)

School with FSU as its IHE partner.

• In the Extended Learning and Summer Programs 610 online courses were

offered serving 11,916 students; 6,360 students enrolled in Summer School;

and 257 students took continuing education and certificate courses. There

were 201 courses offered as part of collaborative partnerships, including

the NC Model Teachers Education Consortium, Harnett County Reading

Courses, UNC-Chapel Hill and NC Corrections, the Math and Science

Education Network, and NC TEACH.

• College of Arts and Sciences. The Department of Social Work launched a

partnership with the U.S. Army Medical Command (MEDCOM) to offer a

Master of Social Work (MSW) degree at Ft. Sam Houston in San Antonio,

Texas. The inaugural MSW cohort will graduate 16 students in August 2009.

• Faculty Development. The Center for Innovation in Teaching and Learning (CITL) presented over 100 faculty

development workshops and lectures with 1,162 attendees drawn from every department in the university.

Nationally renowned experts, such as Dr. Freedman Hrabowski, Dr. Vincent Tinto, Dr. Peggy Maki, and Dr.

Virginia Lee, were brought to campus to work with faculty and staff to improve student learning outcomes,

recruitment, and retention. The participation of faculty in professional meetings was facilitated by funds from

Title III. FSU also gained recognition as a HBGI institution, which entitles FSU to receive additional funding for

graduate programs.

• Globalization. The International Education Center, working with various academic departments on campus,

finalized five new partnerships. New international institutional partners are ESC Bretagne Brest, France;

Covenant University, Nigeria; University of Abuja, Nigeria; Institute of Social Work, Tanzania; and Baotou

Teacher’s College, China. Dr. Booker T. Anthony and Dr. Yunkai Chen took a group of twenty students to

study in Shanghai and Beijing, China for one week this summer. Dr. Daniel Okunbor took three students to

Lagos and Abuja, Nigeria for summer study. Each group was immersed in the language and culture of that

region. Ronald Williams, a junior biology major was selected by the U.S. Department of State and the Chinese

Ministry of Education to participate in a program to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the establishment of

diplomatic relations between China and the United States. There were five Fulbright Scholars who taught

language courses and rendered community services: Salma J. Mrindok of Tanzania, Mohammed Majed of

Bahrain, Taher Hamami of Algeria, Yikang Bai of China, and Joseph O. Ajayi of Nigeria.

Ground was broken on the new Southeastern North Carolina Nursing Education and Research Center in June 2008. The Center is scheduled to open in 2010.

Business and FinanceDespite the 7% budget reduction for 2008-09, the Division of Business

and Finance has contributed significantly to improving the overall

campus environment. Efficiency, accountability, and sustainability,

accompanied by improvements in safety, improvement in student

services, maintenance of campus buildings, and campus beautification

have helped FSU to maintain fiscal integrity this year.

• The UNC Financial Improvement and Transformation Project (UNC

FIT), which was kicked off at FSU in December 2008, has already

improved establishing accounts, billing accounts, and paying out

of accounts in Contracts and Grants, Financial Aid, and General

Accounting.

• The number of audit findings for 2007-08 was reduced from 14 to 2.

• Public safety was improved with the implementation of “Shots Fired” –

Response to Active Shooter Training: employment of a Director of

Emergency Management, Environmental Health, and Safety; and the

installation of video surveillance in academic buildings.

• Strides made in sustainability included: the replacement of florescent

lights with energy efficient lamps; the purchase of twelve green

electric powered utility vehicles; expansion of the Campus Single

Stream Recycling Program; establishment of the student organization

the FSU Green Team; became a certified Green Campus with

Sustainable Sandhills; and incorporated sustainability as a priority in

the FSU Strategic Plan.

• 12 out of 18 of the higher education bond projects for construction,

renovation, and repair have been completed. Construction on the

new nursing building began in July 2009.

Information Technology and Telecommunication ServicesThere were approximately 32 projects completed during the past year in ITTS. Some

of them were upgrades to existing systems to gain capacity and additional features,

and some were equipment replacements done as a proactive measure to avoid service

interruptions. Of all the projects completed, there are five that are significant as they

impact positively and directly on student success.

• Student e-mail accounts were outsourced to Microsoft Live@edu which will give

students a lifetime e-mail account.

• With purchase of additional server hardware and software upgrades, a redundant

e-mail system with robust back-up, recovery, and archiving features was

implemented for faculty and staff. SPAM and VIRUS are being blocked from entering

the campus on any given day.

• In the School of Business and Economics the class lectures for four MBA courses for

one whole semester were captured and archived on the web. This allows students

to revisit these lectures whenever they need to do so during the semester. We have

added two additional classrooms with two-way video/audio capabilities.

• To accommodate the need for support of both online and on campus programs,

FSU contracted with Blackboard Corporation to host the software at their data center

which now provides 24 X 7 support.

• Automation of the Text Book Rental Process was completed and students have greater

access to textbooks at an affordable cost through Follett.

“Our students live in a world of expanded information inputs that also involve texting, blogging, Facebook, MySpace, and other forms of social networking… we must prepare our students with thinking skills that are up to the tasks their future will demand.”

Student Affairs“ The pact that we make with students when they arrive at our doorstep extends far beyond words. That agreement represents a solemn oath that means that their development and our excellence as an institution are inextricably bound to one another.”

Students have been actively engaged as citizens and voted

in large numbers during the November 2008 presidential

election. They embraced voluntary service programs and

initiated new student organizations.

• Student civic engagement included a “Get on the Bus” voter

registration drive, taking students to the polls, getting out the

votes in the November election, raising $4,500 in October for

the Cumberland County CROP Hunger Walk, and the Pauline

Jones Elementary School Mentoring Program.

• The Student Government Association also promoted a “Dress

for Success Campaign” and the Green Team in support of

campus conservation and sustainability efforts.

• The FSU Debate Team was one of six college teams selected to

participate in the first Inaugural Debates: Foreign Policy- FSU vs.

Voorhees College, on January 19, 2009 at the Natural History

Museum in Washington, D.C. on the eve of the inauguration of

President Barack Obama. Over fifty FSU students, accompanied

by faculty members, attended the inaugural activities.

• The Black Executive Exchange Program (BEEP) of the

National Urban League was initiated at FSU and three

students (Travis Harris, accounting major; Francine Dunbar,

mass communication major; and M. Jarrell Goode, business

administration major) were chosen to participate in the Atlanta

leadership development conference in June 2009. Travis

Harris will also spend this summer interning with the National

Urban League on Wall Street with Mr. Mark Monteverdi, Vice

President of BEEP and Volunteer Programs.

“No dreams are more important to us than those of our beloved students… we must have the audacity to hope that dreams can become a reality.”

Athletic AffairsFSU’s Athletic Department sponsors a broad-based athletic program

that provides educational opportunities for young men and women

to grow and develop while enhancing the diversity and quality

of college life. FSU teams excelled in golf, won five Divisional

championships, and garnered national recognition for some athletes.

• The most successful athletic program at FSU for 2008-09 was the

golf team. The team won both the Western and Eastern Division titles.

The team took home a fourth consecutive Division II title at the 23rd

PGA Minority Collegiate Golf Championship in Port St. Lucie, Fl. Head

Coach Raymond McDougal was named the CIAA and the East/Atlantic

Super Region Coach of the Year. The team ended the season with a

great showing at the NCAA DII National Tournament which was the first

time that a HBCU has participated in a national tournament in 35 years.

• The women’s basketball team won the Western Division Championship

with a 19-9 winning season. They won the Bahamas Sunshine Shootout

beating the University of Charleston (WV) and California University (Pa.)

in December 2008. L’ Oreal Price was named the Bahamas Shootout

DII Tournament Most Valuable Player.

• The women’s bowling team won the Western Division Championship.

• The football program had an 8-2 overall record for the 2008 season.

The Special Teams Player of the Year was awarded to running back

Richard Medlin who led the conference in scoring with 78 points and

ranked first nationally in Division II as a kickoff specialist.

• In volleyball middle blocker Chekimbrell Jefferson was named the

2008 CIAA Player of the Year and was the driving force that led the

Lady Broncos to a 14-1 conference mark, and a perfect 9-0 record to

win the Western Division Championship.

• In softball, after defeating Johnson C. Smith 12-5 and 8-0 in a softball

double-header, the Lady Broncos claimed the 2008-09 Divisional Title.

Development and University Relations“FSU is on the cusp of becoming a culture of integrity, excellence, engagement, commitment, and innovation. As we evolve

we must stay attentive to the needs of our students, our faculty, our community partners, and to the global marketplace.”

The Division of Development and University Relations made its greatest strides in conservation by

eBlasts resulted in nearly 224,928 contacts from July 1, 2008 and June 30, 2009.

• As an alternative to snail mail, via the US Postal service, the use of email has saved a gross estimated

amount of $94,468.76 for fiscal year 2008-09.

• The use of On-Line communities such as MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, and Ting has produced 5,272

contacts this year.
