Williams, 2006 Computer under construction at an IBM production facility in Research Triangle Park, 1984. Photograph by Billy Barnes. North Carolina Collection, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Library. Research Triangle Park, the largest planned research center in the United States, was created in 1959 through the efforts of Governor Luther Hodges [2] and hundreds of scientists, politicians, and business leaders. Located between Raleigh [3] and Durham [4] and the Triangle's three acclaimed universities-the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill [5], Duke University [6], and North Carolina State University [7]-Research Triangle Park (RTP) in 2006 encompassed 7,000 acres and was home to more than 100 research and development organizations employing 38,000 North Carolinians. Smaller but highly successful research parks also existed in Charlotte [8], Greensboro [9], Rocky Mount, and elsewhere, playing an important role in the diversification of the state's economy. The need for a redirection of economic development away from traditional products such ast extiles [10], tobacco [11], and furniture [12] was envisioned in the early 1950s by some of North Carolina's morep rogressive [13] leaders. In 1952 Howard Odum, a renowned UNC-Chapel Hill sociologist and founder of the university's Institute for Research in Social Science [14], voiced a number of ideas about cooperative research centers that could benefit the state by combining the strengths of its three research universities. State leaders considered how these institutions could become a foundation for economic development.
