OPEN HOUSE The Nubian Message CONTACT: Kishea Phillips, editor Nubian Message Mission The Nubian Message shall be a media representative of the African-American voice for North Carolina State University. The Nubian Message will be a newspaper publication in which people can learn about different aspects of African-American culture, as well as other cultures. The periodical will be a source of useful information for all students by reporting on events that will appeal to the NCSU community. ‘Nubian Message’ formed By Derek Medlin The Nubian Message—the African-American student newspaper formed out of extreme frustration and desire for change—has now served as the voice of African-American student life and culture at the University for more than 15 years. Much has changed since black students rallied in the Brickyard in late September of 1992 to call for the formation of a black newspaper. The University has seen four different chancellors, Centennial Campus has exploded into one of the best research campuses in the country and NCSU has become the largest university in North Carolina by more than 3,000 students. When the first issue ran Nov. 30, 1992, few on campus or off could have predicted the successes and failures that the publication would have in the decade to come. CONTINUED… CLICK HERE Past Editors
