Excerpt from Agromeck, 1954 Why a theme? We asked ourselves this question and answered that we thought a theme too disconnected with our college history and memories to be deserving of use as a basis of a story running through these pages. In stead, we have embodied the college, its phase of life, and the various train ing it offers into a composite art motif. If it be termed a theme, let it be term ed a theme of the progress of this school. We sincerely hope our purpose to present something new and dif ferent has been achieved. It shall have been if in passing years this volume brings you memories of friends of trials and triumph of life - at North Carolina State. Dedication.
