SCEC Advisor Unit # 1150

Education students at North Carolina A & T State University started the semester attending classes in our new School of Education building. The Fall semester was a busy one; however, SCEC officers held monthly meetings to plan and organize upcoming service projects.


NC A&T SCEC chapterMembers have worked to pull off a series of successful philanthropy projects. Our annual book drive was held to collect books for a local organization in need of children's books. Students collected 65 books which were donated to the Black Child Development Institute in Greensboro, North Carolina.

SCEC members also assisted with collecting toiletries and canned food items. Students participated in this activity as part of an Urban Schools course taught by Dr. Cathy Kea. Items were donated to Greensboro Urban Ministries.

Additionally, some members of our SCEC chapter had the privilege of working early bird registration during the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction’s 58th Conference on Exceptional Children. Students not only volunteered, but also had the opportunity to attend conference sessions.
