MEET MALCOLM AND MARTIN BLOW

 (Or is that Martin and Malcolm?)

No need to check your eyes. You are definitely seeing double! Martin and Malcolm Blow are from a small city in the eastern part of our state--namely Snow Hill, North Carolina. They both have had a keen interest in unmanned aircraft since seventh grade, and that interest continued to deepen as they moved closer to graduation from Greene Central High School in 2008. They, however, did break away from the science/math/laboratory focus during high school to run track (distance) and to participate in the marching band. Their instruments included French horn, trumpet, and mellophone. Malcolm and Martin visited our campus during the summer prior to their senior year in high school to take part in The Research Apprenticeship Program (RAP) that was sponsored by the department of Animal Sciences in the School of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences. They enjoyed their summer program immensely. They both applied to and were accepted at North Carolina State University as well as at our alma mater. They selected A&T because of the reputation of the College of Engineering and also because they desired to have the HBCU experience.

During Malcolm’s and Martin’s freshman year, they researched the intricacies of unmanned aircraft that specifically looked for forest fires before they reached devastatingly disastrous levels ...........Read more
