The NC State Continuing and Lifelong Education Records contain correspondence, brochures, computer media, course catalogs, flyers, instructor sheets, newsletters, pamphlets, programs, publicity and promotional materials, reports, setup sheets, (scheduling documents), and other records. Materials range in date from the 1940s to 2022.
North Carolina State University's McKimmon Center for Extension and Continuing Education opened in 1976, but the history of continuing education at NC State University dates back even further. As early as 1895, the college began to hold short courses (and later summer schools) outside of its normal offerings to college students. In 1924, the College Extension Divison was formally established to oversee many of these programs. In 1965 this unit was renamed the Division of Continuing Education. In 2022, the McKimmon Center was renamed NC State Continuing and Lifelong Education. It serves as a gateway to the vast intellectual and technical resources at NC State University (https://mckimmoncenter.ncsu.edu/history/, accessed 5/29/2020).

The McKimmon Center was originally named after the late Dr. Jane S. McKimmon, who served for 35 years (1911-1946) as a leader in home demonstration work and received many honors for her outstanding direction of youth and adult extension education in North Carolina. The name was changed in 2022 to establish a stronger relationship with the university.
The North Carolina State University Continuing and Lifelong Education Records contain correspondence, brochures, computer media, course catalogs, flyers, instructor sheets, newsletters, pamphlets, programs, publicity and promotional materials, reports, setup sheets, (scheduling documents), and other records from the McKimmon Center. Materials range in date from the 1940s to 2022.
