Abstract:
This article examines the origins of education systems in North Carolina that would eventually lead to the establishment of institutions of higher learning. The author traces attempts to establish such institutions back as far as 1754, and continues to examine acts of legislature, charters, and colonial issues of establishment, as well as the genesis of the idea of state universities.
