Excerpt from Bulletin of the North Carolina State Normal and Industrial College; May, 1911: Nineteenth Annual Catalogue, 1910-1911 Section 5. The object Of this institution shall be (1) to give to young women such education as shall fit them for teaching; (2) to give instruction to young women in draw ing, telegraphy, typewriting, stenography, and such other industrial arts as may be suitable to their sex and conducive to their support and usefulness. Tuition shall be free to those who signify their intention to teach upon such condi tions as may be prescribed by the Board of Directors. The chief mission of the College has been and will continue to be the preparation of teachers. At least two-thirds of all its enrolled students and nine-tenths of all its graduates have rendered service to the State in either the public or the private schools. For stu dents who may not wish to teach and who must yet look to their own efforts for a livelihood, instruction is offered in the commercial branches, drawing, indus trial art, domestic science, and other subjects - the mastery of which will enable them to become self supporting. The College realizes, however, that not all who seek an education do so with a desire to become teachers or from motives of self-support. For that considerable body of women who seek the broad cul ture to be derived from a familiarity with the world's best thought and achievement, liberal courses in the arts, sciences and music are offered - the Institution thus endeavoring to meet the needs of the women of North Carolina and to give such education as will add to the efficiency of the average woman's work, what ever her position and field of labor.
