Basic Division The Basic Division has been functioning at State College since September, 1938. Its principal purposes, as set forth in the action of the Board of Trustees by which it was created, are twofold: 1. To provide two years of basic courses in the humanities, natural and exact sciences and the social sciences as the foundation of the schools of agriculture and forestry, textiles and engineering. 2. To provide in the curricula of the upper years of each technological school for a minimum of the more general cultural courses in the humanities, natural sciences, and social sciences. The Basic Division is responsible for the educational progress of all freshmen and sophomores. In addition to the daily contact with teachers in the classrooms and labora- tories, each student has the benefit of help from his technical adviser, who keeps him in the straight path with respect to his load and subjects pursued; of friendly advice from his counselor with respect to vocational aims and personal adjustments in the college environment; and of cooperation with his dormitory assistant in helping to create conditions in the dormitories which will be conducive to a good combination of happy living and serious working. The Basic Division thus undertakes to surround the student with the best opportunities for personal and educational development. The response of the students is continuously encouraging. Perhaps the Division including its students, can claim part of the credit for the steadily improving scholarship of the college and for our steadily improving standing among the technological institutions of the country.

Agriculture and Forestry Opportunities for leadership in the fields of agriculture and forestry abound in North Carolina. The School of Agriculture and Forestry offers the means wherehy students can obtain the technical training necessary to make maximum use of these opportunities. Curricula have been developed to enable the student to choose his life ' s work either in the direction of a general agricultural background or in the more technical aspects of the profession. The need for technical workers and leaders is great and it will take large graduating classes for a number of years in the future to give to North Carolina agriculture the trained men essential for its progress.
