 Laurinburg Institute

• Founded in 1904, the Laurinburg Institute is a private, nonsectarian preparatory school, according to its website. Located in Laurinburg, North Carolina, about 90 miles south of Raleigh, Laurinburg counts Dizzy Gillespie among its alumni. The school has a strong basketball tradition—NBA Hall of Famer Sam Brown attended Laurinburg, as did Charlie Scott and Charlie Davis, who in 1971 became the first black player to be named Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Year while starring at Wake Forest University. As of March 11, 2010, Laurinburg remains on the National Collegiate Athletic Association's "not cleared" list, according to the NCAA website, which means that grades and graduation from the Institute are inadmissible when determining prospective student-athletes' initial eligibility to compete in intercollegiate athletics.
