MoreThis collection contains tapes, transcripts, and biographies for six interviews conducted in 2006 and 2007 by Chad Morgan from the NC State University Libraries staff. The people who were interviewed had been associated with North Carolina State University's Centennial Campus, a research and advanced technology community where university, industry, and government partners interact in multidisciplinary programs. North Carolina State University's Centennial Campus is a research and advanced technology community where university, industry, and government partners interact in multidisciplinary programs. In 1984, 355 acres in west Raleigh was transferred to the University. The initial allotment was enlarged the following year by an additional 450 acres. The campus developed as a series of clusters with a mix of academic and private research buildings. In the early 1990s, the College of Textiles moved from the main North Carolina State University campus to Centennial land and the Engineering Graduate Research Center was established. The early 1990s also saw government tenants moving onto Centennial Campus. As of 2009 the Centennial Campus was home to 61 corporate and government partners as well as 73 NC State research centers, institutes, laboratories and department units. In 2004-2006 the NC State University Libraries conducted the Centennial Campus Documentation Project to acquire, preserve, and make accessible archival records documenting the history of Centennial Campus. As part of the project Libraries' staff conducted oral history interviews with key players in the campus's development.

MoreThe Reginald D. Tillson Landscape Architecture Papers contains drawings, sketches, specifications, correspondence, notes, plant guides, and other materials that document the landscape design work of Tillson from the 1920s to the 1970s. The collection also contains an oral history interview of his son, David Tillson, in 2016. These materials encompass Tillson's work as a landscape architect, creating designs for small-scale residential locations, large-scale private subdivision, public parks, public housing projects, schools, churches, and hospitals. The collection represents Tillson's work throughout the southeastern United States, with the majority of the projects based in North Carolina's Piedmont Triad region. The earlier materials from 1906 to 1928 demonstrate Tillson's beginnings in landscape architecture while gaining knowledge and experience in the field. The bulk of the collection covers Tillson's career as a practicing landscape architect between 1928 and 1969. The collection ranges from 1906 to 2016. Reginald D. Tillson was a landscape architect in High Point, North Carolina, who designed significant improvements to the built environment of High Point and other communities of the Piedmont Triad area. His early career focused on residential design work for the wealthy and upper-middle-class residents of High Point, which at the time was a prosperous center of the textile and furniture industries. In the 1950s and following decades, as North Carolina's population grew and planning and development trends evolved, Tillson's work grew in scale and complexity. He designed dozens of subdivisions and grounds for schools, churches, and hospitals. Overall, his career provides a unique view into planning and landscape architecture practice in the Southeast during decades of immense technological and social change.

MorePromotional materials, announcements, seminar series, committee materials, course and curriculum records, and research symposia information relating to the Engineering Operations Program. Operations Research (OR) is a multidisciplinary graduate program which uses the scientific methodology to study systems whose design or operation require human decision making. OR provides the means for making the most effective decisions - some of which are mainly concerned with design, while others are mainly operational in nature. The strength and versatility of OR stems from its diagnostic power through observation and modeling, as well as from its prescriptive power through analysis and synthesis.

MoreThe University Archives Photograph Collection Visual and Performing Arts Photographs, circa 1899-1904, 1923-1997 (bulk 1954-1997), primarily document the activities of students in the arts programs administered by the North Carolina State University Division of Student Affairs, including the Music Department, the Crafts Center, the Gallery of Art and Design (later the Gregg Museum of Art and Design), the dance program, and the University Theater program. They also cover some of the professional visual and performing arts events that have taken place at NC State University, including concerts, dance performances, and theater performances by artists and companies not affiliated with the university. In addition to photographs, this collection includes some negatives and other items. Although student activity in the performing arts, particularly in a dramatic arts club, dates back to the late 1800s at North Carolina State University (then the North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts), visual and performing arts at NC State University officially began with the formation of the Music Department in 1924. In the late 1950s and early 1960s the Division of Student Affairs, along with the leadership of the Erdahl-Cloyd Student Union, sought to expand arts offerings to the student body. Toward that end, the NC State University Craft Center, Gallery of Art and Design, University Theater, and dance program were established. In addition to these student arts activities, the Division of Student Affairs Arts NC State subdivision brings in performers from outside the university for special events on campus.
