description

This scrapbook documents a pivotal period (1954-1955) in the history of Wake Forest College as it transitioned from its original campus in Wake Forest, North Carolina, to its new campus in Winston-Salem. The content includes newspaper clippings, photographs, and articles highlighting various aspects of campus life, construction progress, student activities, debates regarding the future size and mission of the college, and the cultural and religious events that shaped the community. The scrapbook also features editorials both supporting and criticizing the college's expansion, details about cornerstone-laying ceremonies, developments in academic programs, ROTC changes, and student governance. Prominent individuals such as President Harold W. Tribble, Wilfred Winstead (student editor of Old Gold and Black), and others involved in these historical developments are referenced.
