FAYETTEVILLE STATE UNIVERSITY ANNUAL REPORT 2008-2009
“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.”
Installation of the Chancellor
The Installation of
Chancellor James A. Anderson

The Felton J. Capel Arena
Fayetteville State University
Fayetteville, North Carolina
“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.
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

• 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.

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

and friends. A record of $43,890 was reached with contributions to the State Employees Combined
Campaign for 2008-09.
• eNotice, our monthly e-newsletter, was sent to approximately 9,372 alumni of the University. Twenty-four
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.
