Scope and Content Note

This subgroup consists of a variety of records culled and collected from various locations to provide a ready access point for general questions and research into the history of NCSU and University-related structures, sites, and properties. University sources include The Technician, the University's Official Bulletin, and other NCSU publications, as well as local and regional newspapers. This is an artificial and on-going collection. It is arranged alphabetically with the exception of Boxes 1 and 10, which contain general information files and Building Dedication files, respectively.

Within Box 1, the General Information folder contains material on a number of subjects not directly related to individual buildings. Information on campus construction and growth, building renovations, memorial plaques, and place names can be found in in this folder. The CADD System folder contains correspondence and lists relating to the numbering system for University buildings used by the Facilities Division. The Building Costs and Maps folders are self-explanatory.

Box 10 contains dedicatory material on many--but not all--of the buildings documented in this subgroup. This material typically consists of brochures, programs, and other items relating to building dedication ceremonies. This material is arranged alphabetically by building name.
