Abstract:
In 1939 State College celebrated its fiftieth anniversary. The institution filled a gap in higher education because it focused on agricultural and industrial courses which were not offered at the University of North Carolina. Classes began for 72 enrolled students on October 3, 1889 in Holladay Hall named after the first President Dr. Alexander Q. Holladay. Student body increased greatly by 1939 and enrollment reached the 10,000 mark.
