Product Description
North Carolina State University opened as a land grant institution in 1889. Born out of debate and indecision, it was established as the North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Artsthe college of the common man. There was indifference and resistance from the educated about the usefulness of a program for the sons of farmers and

mechanics with a curriculum of useful and practical arts. Within three decades, the school surpassed all expectations in its contributions to the states economy. In 2000, NC State was the largest educational facility in North Carolina and had outgrown its early derogatory epithets. This work passes the formality and function of the brick and mortar of buildings and gets to the heart of the students, alumni, and educational community. It is truly a celebration of possibilities and dedication and a tribute to the history of North Carolina State University and the citizens of North Carolina.

I dont know how he did it, but Burke Salsi Jr. somehow made the history of NC State interesting. He really just has a way with words. This book is a finely crafted work of art!
