What does it say about a generation when 100 Eagles choose to show up?

We’re about to find out.

Now through June 30, we’re inviting 100 young alumni to become One of the 100.

Because it’s more than a number. It’s a statement.

It says:

“I’m still connected.”
“I’m still invested.”
“I still believe in NCCU.”

Young Alumni are already being counted. Will you be one of them?
