Historical Highlights 

Elizabeth City State University was founded on March 3, 1891, when House Bill 383 was enacted 

by the North Carolina General Assembly, establishing a normal school for the specific purpose of 

“teaching and training teachers of the colored race to teach in the common schools of North Carolina.” 

The bill was sponsored by Hugh Cale, an African American representative from Pasquotank County. 

Between 1891 and 1928, curricula and resources were expanded under the leadership of Peter 

Wedderick Moore. Enrollment increased from 23 to 355 and the faculty from 2 to 15 members by the 

time Dr. Moore retired as President-Emeritus on July 1, 1928. 

Under the leadership of John Henry Bias, the second president, who served from July 1, 1928 until 

his death on July 15, 1939, the institution was elevated from a two-year normal school to a four-year 

teachers college in 1937. The institution’s name was officially changed to Elizabeth City State Teachers 

College on March 30, 1939, and the mission was expanded to include the training of elementary school 

principals for rural and city schools. The first Bachelor of Science degrees in Elementary Education 

were awarded in May 1939. 

The number of majors increased between 1959 and 1963 from a single elementary education major 

to 12 additional academic majors. The college was granted full membership in the Southern Association 

of Colleges and Schools in December 1961. Its accreditation has since been reaffirmed. The name 

changed from Elizabeth City State Teachers College to Elizabeth City State College by the General 

Assembly in 1963. Effective July 1, 1969, the college became Elizabeth City State University. In 1971, 

the General Assembly redefined The University of North Carolina system with sixteen public 

institutions. Including ECSU, those institutions are constituents of The University of North Carolina 

(July 1972). 

Currently, ECSU offers 37 baccalaureate degree programs and four master's degree programs in 

Elementary Education, Biology, Mathematics and School Administration. ECSU also offers a doctor of 

pharmacy degree in collaboration with the Eshelman School of Pharmacy (UNC- Chapel Hill). ECSU 

has earned national acclaim for its academic advances: In 2007, Diverse Issues in Higher Education 

ranked ECSU #1 among Historically Black Colleges and Universities for its black male student athlete 

graduation rate. Between 1999 and 2013, ECSU repeatedly earned national acclaim in U.S. News and 

World Report Magazine's ranking of best colleges in the south. The U.S. News and World Report's 2013 

Edition of Best Colleges ranked ECSU as third in the Top Public Schools Regional Colleges (South) 

category and #20 among the nation's Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Elizabeth City State 

University also ranked #1 among baccalaureate colleges in Washington Monthly's 2012 college 

rankings. 

In 2000, ECSU began designing capital improvement projects funded by $46.3 million from the 

state's Higher Education Bond Referendum. The results were a Physical Education/Field House (2003), 

University Suites, a residence hall (2004), the Walter N. Henrietta B. Ridley Student Complex (2005). 

Viking Village, a student residence hall adjacent to the campus main entry, resulted from a universityprivate 

partnership (September 2004). In July 2004, the NC General assembly allotted $28 million to 

construct facilities for the Pharmacy Complex which opened in the fall of 2010. Construction of the 

Willie and Jacqueline Gilchrist Education and Psychology Complex began in July 2010 and was 


Page 7 of 51 

completed in December 2011. Construction of a new three-story residence hall began in May 2011 and 

was completed in August 2012. 

Since 2005, ECSU student athletes have earned a respectable collection of championship 

trophies in the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association: the softball and baseball teams (2005); 

basketball (Vikings 2007); volleyball (Lady Vikings 2008) and bowling (Lady Vikings 2009). ECSU 

teams also won three CIAA Eastern Division titles: football (Vikings 2006 and 2008); basketball (Lady 

Vikings 2007); volleyball (Lady Vikings 2007). The football team won the CIAA Northern Division 

championship (2011 and 2012) and was the 2012 Pioneer Bowl Champion. 

Dr. Willie J. Gilchrist, an alumnus, is Chancellor of Elizabeth City State University and the 

university's ninth chief executive officer. He was installed on September 25, 2007.

Historic Location 

Located in the historic Albemarle area near the mouth of the Pasquotank River, Elizabeth

Students may also wish to take advantage of the historical sites in the greater Albemarle and 

southeastern Virginia areas. Williamsburg, Jamestown, Roanoke Island, Yorktown, several 

antebellum plantations, beaches and waterways are among sites within an easy drive from the

automobile. City bus routes, hotels and motels are available to accommodate overnight visitors,

The university is situated on 114 acres which represent the campus proper. Another 68 

acres comprise the former farm on Weeksville Road (N.C. 34); a 639-acre tract in Currituck County 

helps preserve the nation's diminishing wetlands and provides for educational research; and 35 

acres serve residential or expansion purposes. There are also small sites in Utah and Virginia used,
