The North Carolina State University Alumni/Student Collection was created in 1996 to centralize future material relating to activities of University students. It is intended for this collection to have the value of a representative sample of these activities. In addition, it is designed to focus on future acquisitions, so no attempt was made to reorganize similar existing collections into the Alumni/Student Collection. Currently, the collection contains: 1) Alumni recollections of Walter J. Mathews, alumnus of the first graduating class at North Carolina State University (1 June 1966); Robert Hall Morrison, II, class of 1900; William Leon Parks, who attended North Carolina State University from 1897 to 1899; Ben O.
