PRIZER -- Pining for Turpentine: Critical Nostalgia, Memory, and Commemorative Expression in the Wake of Industrial Decline (Under the direction of Patricia E. Sawin) The late twentieth-century decline of the turpentine industry in south Georgia and north Florida has inspired efforts on the part of former workers to memorialize their industry. Because the production of turpentine involved the tapping of pine trees for the extraction of resin or crude gum, the industry made a significant and conspicuous impact on the landscape.

    50 Years Of Partnership Paper Science and Engineering 1954 – 2004 1955 – 2005 History compiled by Robert Hitchings, Michael Kocurek, and Ben Chilton 2 History A History of the Pulp and Paper Program and Foundation at NC State University THE PROGRAM IS ESTABLISHED During the 1951-52 academic year, a pulp and paper program, combining the facilities and Faculty of the School of Forestry, Department of Chemical Engineering and Department of Chemistry was announced. Graduate studies and research were already conducted in the pulp and paper area both in the Department of Chemical Engineering and the School of Forestry. The equipment available to the original pulp technology program included a chipper, defiberizer, beater, sheet forming cylinders, and a digester. A search was started at this time to employ an outstanding man to head up the program in pulp technology and to establish the first undergraduate training program for the pulp and paper industry in the South. In order to attract an outstanding individual to the faculty of the School of Forestry, Dean R. J. Preston approached leaders of the industry with the aid of Mr. Reuben B. Robertson, Sr., Chairman of the Board of Champion Paper and Fiber Company. As a result of this meeting, Mr. Robertson invited a number of executives from major pulp and paper companies to Champion’s Lake Logan Camp so that Chancellor Harrelson, Dean Preston, and other School personnel could present their case for the need of a new curriculum in this field and for the necessity of industry’s support in R.J. Preston an effort to maintain a superior program in this field at North Carolina State University.
