North Carolina Central University will once again compete in the Home Depot 2011
"Retool Your School" competition, which awards grants to historically black colleges and universities. NCCU submitted two projects for consideration: $50,000 to beautify and install an ADA-approved wheelchair ramp in front of the McDougald - McLendon Gymnasium and $10,000 to update one of the campus bowls used by Greek-letter organizations.
The Retool Your School grant program will award $150,000 in grants, distributed as one $50,000 grand prize and 10 other grants of $10,000 each. The grant supports evergreen campus improvement efforts. Online voting will take place until April 22.
