Reaching out to Veterans The Agricultural Institute is a natural fit for many of our armed forces veterans. We offer a gateway to hands-on, dynamic careers that are well suited to the experiences and inclinations of veterans. As such, we have recently started reaching out more actively to the veteran population here in North Carolina. Our staff has received Green Zone training -- training intended to make staff aware of and responsive to issues specific to our veteran population -- and the rest of our faculty will receive it in the fall. We are also sending a representative to military recruiting events across the state. If you know of any veteran who might be interested in what we have to offer, please contact us at ag_institute@ncsu.edu or 919-515-3248. Read more» |

How You Can Help We have many funds that accept donations, but our Agricultural Institute Enhancement Fund, which supports student activities, is our main source of program support. You can donate here. Or, if you are interested in your own named endowment, please contact Chris Wessel in the CALS Advancement Office via email or at 919-515-7678. . |
