Abstract:

Discusses the history of founder's/homecoming day for East Carolina that stopped as a formal celebration for the school. East Carolina began its Founder's Day Celebration on March 5, 1932 as a formal celebration for the school. It was discontinued during World War Two and held once more in 1947. This important tradition should be revived.
