The North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University, a prominent historically black university, was created by the General Assembly of North Carolina in 1891 to provide adequate mechanical and academic instruction to colored Americans. At the same time, the General Assembly established the North Carolina Agricultural and Mechanical College, now known as NC State University, which was created for the same purpose but catered to white students, as segregation in education was not yet accepted.
