“I am my ancestors’ wildest dreams.”
Just one month before moving to Raleigh as a first-year @ncstatedesign student, Ashtyn Thomas was crowned Miss Lumbee 2023. Now, she’s balancing her full architecture course load and serving as an ambassador for the Lumbee community — all while building a new home here at NC State.
“When I put pieces of NC State on my dress, it shows NC State is a place where I’ve found home and will be home for the next few years.”

Light up the night. ⚡️🌀
Three sets of panels of interwoven light and color make up the Brickyard’s newest installation, built by sculptor and @ncstatedesign alumnus Matt McConnell.
The piece includes a complex system of circuit boards and switches, creating a display of color and light at night.
You can weave your way through “Evolution Field” until February. 🌈

This is your sign to pause and take a break for ✨wellness✨.

A Dynamic Environment
How would we describe our campus? Gorgeous, traditional architecture meets leading-edge, futuristic structures. (It’s a combination you won’t see at any other university in the area.)
See where our students spend their time.
