In 1923, following the reorganization of North Carolina State College (later, University), the School (later, College) of Agriculture was created. In 1964, the School of Agriculture became the School of Agriculture and Life Sciences.

MoreThe Dean's Office records of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences at North Carolina State University contain general, administrative, and academic records from 1924 to 2016. The records in this subgroup consist of but are not limited to correspondences, annual reports, course and curriculum information, meeting minutes, news clipping, photographs, publications, committee and council proceedings, department head searches, budget reports, and materials pertaining to international programs and learning centers. First established as a distinct college in 1963, the College of Humanities and Social Sciences (CHASS) represents the intellectual core of the university, though it has gone through a series of transformations throughout North Carolina State University’s history. The first English and History courses were offered in 1889, when the College of Agriculture and Mechanical Arts opened. It wasn’t until 1937 that the departments of English, Modern Languages, History, Sociology, Psychology, and Ethics were all grouped together under the Basic Division. In 1952, the Basic Division was replaced by the School of General Studies, which was also non-degree-granting. However, in 1963 it was renamed again as the School of Liberal Arts (SLA) and was authorized to award degrees. The School of Liberal Arts would again undergo a name change in 1977, becoming the School of Humanities and Social Sciences (SHASS). Then, in 1987, SHASS was one of eight of the university’s academic schools to be re-designated as a college, becoming the College of Humanities and Social Sciences. As of 2009, CHASS is the second largest college at North Carolina State University.

MoreThis collection contains blueprints, drawings, notes, sketches, memoranda, surveys, photographic slides, and master plans relating to projects and initiatives undertaken by the Office of the University Architect. The majority of materials correspond to Edwin F. Harris’s tenure as Campus Planning Consultant, beginning in 1966, and later as director of Facilities Planning Division, a title which eventually became University Architect. However, the collection includes materials that pre-date Harris, as well as more recent additions to the collection. The University Archives contains architectural plans, drawings, and other materials for university buildings; however, federal and state law restricts access to certain types of documents in these categories. The Special Collections Research Center of the NC State University Libraries will handle access requests for those materials on a case-by-case basis, with the intention of providing as much access as possible to researchers. To support the university’s mission and goals, the Office of the University Architect leads campus master planning, capital planning, space planning, campus design, and facilities data management efforts, which include the building floor plans, campus maps, GIS, and plan library. Services offered by the Office include capital project programming, committee involvement, facilities information management, and planning activities (https://facilities.ofa.ncsu.edu/about-us/all-facilities-departments/oua/, accessed 5/8/2020).
