The college, which started with four teachers and 37 students, initially offered instruction in agriculture, English, horticulture, and mathematics.[9] The college continued to operate in Raleigh until the Board of Trustees voted, in 1892, to relocate the college to Greensboro. With monetary and land donations totaling $11,000 and 14 acres (0.057 km2), the new Greensboro campus was established the following year and the college's first President, John Oliver Crosby, was elected on May 25, 1892.[9]
