Whats Up Doc, I am a high school senior who will begin college in the fall of 06'. I plan to major in both mathematics and kinesiology, I aspire to obtain doctorates in physical therapy and mathematics. I know both are very prosperous fields, However, I think I'll just choose one. My question is, based on your experience what would you say or how would you convince me to take a career in education than to take one of health? Friday, October 21st 2005 at 12:25PM |

It's good to see that someone put you as a notable alumni. Thank you so much for focusing my attention to NCCU, and those many years in NC-MSEN. It wasn't the same without you. Love, Veronica Bunch Friday, November 11th 2005 at 11:19AM |
