Abstract

These bulletins/catalogs are primary documents that show North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University in its early years.  When it was established in 1891, the name of the college was the Agricultural and Mechanical College for the Negro. In 1915, the college’s name was changed to Agricultural and Technical College for the Negro. These bulletins are very historical and informative resources in that they provide a broad look at what campus life was like in the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century.  For the researcher looking for information on the history of the college, this can be the first step in that search because of the rich textual and photographic content of the bulletins.  The following information can be obtained from the bulletins: a historical sketch of the college; admission requirements; tuition and other expenses; the names of the administrators and faculty of the college; courses of study by majors, enrollment of students by city, county and state;  the mottos of each graduating class from 1899 to 1923; the listings of graduates, their majors and hometowns; medals and award recipients; the application for admission; descriptions of college and student life including student organizations such as the debating teams, the band glee club and athletics. Photographs contained in the bulletins include campus buildings, the farm, students in class and faculty and student organizations.
