Classroom

Primrose Hall has had many purposes since its establishment in 1896. The building was the home of the School of Agriculture, a warehouse, student supplies store, the military department headquarters, offices for student publication, and a geology department space. The building was named after William Stuart Primrose to honor a loyal supporter of the university.

This walking tour includes 20 sites on North Carolina State University's main/older campus along Hillsborough Street starting with the Gregg Museum of Art and Design, moving west to the Bell Tower and oldest campus buildings, stopping at the Court of Carolinas, before proceeding to the campus Brickyard, main library, and further classroom buildings. The entries in this tour were researched and curated by Triangle-area teachers participating in a summer '19 professional development program on the topic of "culture and technology" in which they learned to use different technology tools to connect with and reflect on culture. Teachers selected and researched a given building with individual entries combined into this tour that can be taken virtually online or by walking on site.
