  • Emerald Eyes
    0 Trinity Lauren Emerald Eyes It’s been nearly three months since I saw Sam in person last; four since I told him I loved him for the first and only time. And now, he’s here, sat beside me as we make our way to a small beach just over half an hour away from June and I’s apartment. There was so much still unsaid between us, but we carried on as if it were nothing. The rest of my time in New York almost feels like a dream to me now—so far in the past and, yet, so prevalent now. It’s a strange place to be in with your best friend, of all people. We spoke nearly every night leading up to his visit, but nothing had been established, as far as our relationship was concerned and it’s scary. The sun is setting just beyond the water as we approach, blanket in hand. By now, most have already cleared out for fear of mosquitoes and not making it home in time to catch the evening news, but neither of those terrifying things could deter us; not after being away from each other so long. June shooed us away from the apartment after deciding to work from home after nearly a year. While not the most subtle, the excuse for alone time was appreciated, nonetheless. It was nearly a mirror image of that first night: The two of us silent, unsure of how to carry on without addressing us, hand-in-hand as we watch the stars spring up one by one.

  • The Growth of the Nascar Industry in Charlotte, North Carolina, 1949-2000
    CITY OF RACERS: THE GROWTH OF THE NASCAR INDUSTRY IN CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA, 1949-2000 by Bryan Paul Gable A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of North Carolina at Charlotte in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Charlotte 2018 Approved by: ______________________________ Dr. Mark Wilson ______________________________ Dr. Aaron Shapiro ______________________________ Dr. Ritika Prasad ii ©2018 Bryan Paul Gable ALL RIGHTS RESERVED iii ABSTRACT BRYAN PAUL GABLE. City of Racers: The Growth of the NASCAR Industry in Charlotte, North Carolina, 1949-2000. (Under the direction of Dr. Mark Wilson) This study explores the development of the NASCAR industry in the city of Charlotte and its surrounding region through the second half of the twentieth century. I argue that NASCAR and Charlotte were seeking the same goals in the late twentieth century: greater national prominence and a strong relationship with corporate America. As a result, NASCAR found a technological and cultural home in Charlotte by proving its worth as a desirable and highly profitable industry. I explain how Charlotte Motor Speedway emerged from bankruptcy and became an exemplary venue for NASCAR by solidifying its reputation as the showplace of NASCAR. I also describe the culture of specialization that the Holman-Moody race team fostered in Charlotte. Later generations of Charlotte NASCAR teams would continue to embrace innovative methods for managing a race team. Finally, I discuss Charlotte’s importance as a growing urban center of the Piedmont and NASCAR’s contributions to building Charlotte’s regional identity. iv DEDICATION For my grandfather, who taught me that academic excellence is its own reward.
