About us
Barber-Scotia College is the second oldest historically black college in North Carolina and the 17th oldest HBCU in the nation. What would become Barber-Scotia College was founded in January, 1867, by Reverend Luke Dorland, who was commissioned by the Presbyterian Church, U.S.A. to establish in the South an institution for the training of African-American women. The original purpose of the college was to prepare women to go into the fields of education and social work. The mission of the college has always focused on total student development as etched in the Faith Hall cornerstone: “For Head, Hand and Heart.”

President Rey stands with other HBCU Presidents and the President of the United States during National HBCU Week Conference in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. For more than 180 years, HBCUs have been advancing intergenerational economic mobility for Black families and communities, developing vital academic research, and making our Nation more prosperous and equitable. Despite representing only 3% of colleges and universities, HBCUs play an outsized role to support the economic mobility of African Americans, producing 40 percent of all Black engineers, 50 percent of all Black teachers, 70 percent of all Black doctors and dentists, 80 percent of all Black judges, and the first woman and Black Vice President of the United States. When they ask do HBCU’s still matter, look them straight in their eyes and let them know they SURE DO! #BSCRising #HBCUPride
