MoreThe photographs in the Alumni Association subgroup of the University Archives Photograph Collection document the organization's various activities and programs, including awards, scholarships, fundraising, alumni weekends, and homecoming. Homecoming photographs include tailgates, parades and floats, pep rallies, and homecoming queens and contestants. Photographs in this subgroup range in date from the 1930s to the late 1990s, the majority are from the 1950s through the 1970s and 1990s. The majority of photographs in the subgroup are in black-and-white. The Alumni Association of the North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanics Arts (North Carolina State University) was organized in June 1895, two years after the graduation of the first class. The association has worked from those earliest days to anticipate and fulfill the needs of the university. In 1987, as the university celebrated its centennial anniversary, the Alumni Association sponsored construction of the Alumni Centennial Gateway on Western Boulevard. The Alumni Association hosts various events including Homecoming, Legacy Luncheons, and Class Reunions. The mission of the NC State Alumni Association is to engage alumni and friends through programs and services that foster pride and enhance a lifelong connection to NC State.
