Message from the NRP:

In these difficult times, the Nuclear Reactor Program (NRP), as a center at North Carolina State University (NCSU), stands in strong and complete support of the messages expressed by our leadership for equity, diversity, and the rejection of all and any forms of racism and discrimination. At the NRP we have always operated according to such moral and ethical standards. We believe that the prosperity of humanity is existentially dependent on its diversity. Consequently, the NRP pledges to be not only a center of education and science, but a center of unequivocal inclusion, which we believe is the only way we can achieve our vision and execute our mission.
