MoreThis collection contains newsclippings collected by Howard Snyder and which concern the 1929 merger of the Pennsylvania State Forest School in Mont Alto, Pa., with the Pennsylvania State College. Some clippings have been mounted on pages separated from a scrapbook. Also contained in the collection is Snyder's red wool jacket from his time at North Carolina State College (now North Carolina State University). On the left breast pocket is an emblem that reads "NCS 30." Howard Aden Snyder graduated from North Carolina State College (now North Carolina State University) in 1930 with a B. S. in Forestry. He was in the first graduating class of the college's new forestry program. During the previous year he was one of approximately 50 students who came to NCC State from the Pennsylvania State Forest School in Mont Alto, Pennsylvania. They were unhappy with the merger of that school with Pennsylvania State College.
