MoreNorth Carolina State University, Athletics, Associate Director of Athletics Records contains the files of J. Franklin (Frank) Weedon. Weedon served in various positions during his tenure at North Carolina State University, including Publicity Director (1960-1961), Director of Sports Information (1961-1971), Assistant Director of Athletics and Sports Information (1971-1976), and Associate Director of Athletics (1976-1997). These records contain information about the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) Service Bureau; departmental administration relating to Carter Stadium, student athlete letter winners, sports newsletters, and Weedon’s correspondence; individual sports; and the Wolfpack Sports Network. Athletics began officially at the North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts on March 2, 1892 at what is today Raleigh's Pullen Park, when a football team made up of students at the college defeated the Raleigh Male Academy, a local high school, by the score 12-6. That fall, the team scrimmaged for the first time against the second teams of area colleges. After losing to the University of North Carolina and Wake Forest, the football team decided that they lacked the funds necessary to compete on an equal level with other colleges and universities. Therefore, they petitioned the college Board of Trustees for fifty dollars to finance travel and team equipment. With this request, the faculty and trustees of the college first became involved with intercollegiate athletics. Since 1947 athletic teams at North Carolina State have been known as the Wolfpack. The University has been a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference since it was formed in 1953.J. Franklin Weedon held offices as Publicity Director (1960-1961), Director of Sports Information (1961-1971), Assistant Director of Athletics and Sports Information (1971-1976) and as the Associate Director of Athletics (1976-1997) at North Carolina State University.

MoreThe North Carolina State University, Athletics, Football Audiovisual Materials collection contains primarily moving image recordings of North Carolina State University varsity football games. These recordings were captured by the Department of Athletics for coaching and review purposes, and are mostly without sound, commentary, or other narration. Also included in this collection are a small number of narrated moving image recordings on the topics of NC State football and collegiate football in general, intended for airing over television stations; as well as miscellaneous footage of individual players and coaches at NC State. Materials range in date from 1937 to 2011, and some recordings are undated. In 1892, the first official football game at NC State was played against a local prep school, Raleigh Male Academy; in 1893, State played their first intercollegiate game against Tennessee. The 1895 team was the first to wear the now traditional red and white colored uniforms, a change from their original pink and blue uniforms. The first on-campus football game was played in 1907 on the field that would later become Riddick Stadium. In 1918, John Ripple becomes the first athlete at NC State to be named an All-American in any sport, and in 1978, Ted Brown becomes the first African American to be named an All-American in football. The football team adopted the nickname “Wolfpack” in 1921, although all other sports continued to use the name “Red Terrors.” In 1930, the first night game was played at Riddick Stadium, and ended in a 37-0 victory against High Point. The team was invited to their first post-season bowl game in 1947, the January 1 Gator bowl against the University of Oklahoma. On October 21 1950, the football team played their first televised game against Maryland. The new Carter Stadium (renamed Carter-Finley Stadium in 1979) opened on October 8, 1966, and in 1967, Marcus Martin became the first African American member of the football team. In 1967, the team won their first bowl game (the Liberty Bowl) against Georgia with a score of 14-7. The team won their first ACC championship in 1957.

MoreThe records of the North Carolina State College (later, University) Department of Agronomy contain correspondence, minutes, reports, project information, publications, and department history files. Materials range in date from 1934 to 1960. Early study of agronomy at North Carolina State University (then, the North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts) was largely the province of the North Carolina Experiment Station, until Charles B. Williams was appointed the University's first agronomist in 1906. He held that position until 1917, when he became the Dean of Agriculture, a position he held until 1923. In 1924, he was named to be the first Head of the new Department of Agronomy, created with the concurrent founding of the School of Agriculture. The Department quickly established a strong reputation in teaching, research, and farm extension work. By the 1940s the Department had developed into two destinct programs of study: Crops and Soils. During the following decade the department had grown so large that in 1955 it was dissolved and its components formed into two separate departments, Field Crops and Soils. These Departments were eventually renamed Crop Science and Soil Science, respectively.

Included are records, correspondence, photographs, data and other material containing information on curricula and teaching, budgets, research projects, professional organizations related to crop science, and research topics. Materials range in date from 1928 to 2014. The North Carolina State University Department of Crop Science began as the Division of Agronomy in the School of Agriculture at the beginning of the 1900s. In 1924, reorganization led to the Division of Agronomy becoming the Department of Agronomy. In 1952, a new building, Williams Hall, was opened, designed to house the by then large department. At the beginning of 1956, Agronomy was divided into the Department of Field Crops and the Department of Soil Science. In 1962, Field Crops changed its name to the Department of Crop Science to better reflect its focus. Dr. Major Goodman has been head of the Maize Breeding and Genetics program since 1983. This program improves upon traditional maize breeding through the incorporation of exotic germplasm and quantitative genetics theory. It is still in operation and headed by Dr. Goodman as of 2013.
