Historical Note

The American Ceramic Society (ACS) was organized in 1898 by members on the National Brick Manufacturers Associtation in Pennsylvania. The ACS is a cooperative, volunteer society, whose members work together to discover advances in ceramics technologies. A student chapter of the ACS was started in or before 1925 at North Carolina State College (University) for the stated reasons of discussing and furthering the ceramic arts and sciences. The student chapter remained active through at least 1987, though it has since disbanded.
