Title:
Research Triangle Foundation Records, 1955-1999
The Research Triangle Foundation (RTF) is the owner and developer of Research Triangle Park, N.C., a research park housing research institutes and other businesses in Piedmont North Carolina. Records of the Research Triangle Foundation include files of predecessor organizations and other organizations related to the planning and development of the Research Triangle Park, among them the Pinelands Company, Inc.; the Research Triangle Committee, Inc.; the Triangle Service Center; and the Research Triangle Regional Planning Commission. Also included are materials relating to the Research Triangle Institute and the Triangle Universities Center for Advanced Studies, Inc. Files contain correspondence, memoranda, agendas and minutes of meetings, financial records, legal documents, maps, plats, architectural drawings, speeches, promotional materials, newspaper clippings, publications of Research Triangle Park organizations, reference materials, photographs, slides, film, and audiocassettes and tapes. These materials document the daily operations of the above organizations, including the recruitment and relocation of businesses and other organizations to the Research Triangle Park; land acquisition and land management; city and infrastructure planning; zoning; research and administrative facilities development; community outreach; fundraising; promotion of the Research Triangle Park area to various industries; publicity for press conferences and special events; and budgeting, loan repayment, and management of other financial operations. The materials also document the work of key figures in the development of the Foundation, Park, Institute, and related organizations, including Elizabeth Aycock; Archie K. Davis; Romeo Guest; George R. Herbert; George Watts Hill; Luther Hodges; Ned E. Huffman; G. Akers Moore, Jr.; James B. Shea, Jr.; George L. Simpson; and Pearson H. Stewart.

In this oral history, conducted in 1999, Dr. Raymond L. Murray talks about the following topics: his education and early work at Oak Ridge during World War II, the first nuclear reactor at NC State (design, construction, and safety), early experiments and nuclear engineering research using the reactor, development of the nuclear engineering program at NC State, colleagues (especially Clifford Beck and Arthur Menius), ideas people had in the 1950s and 1960s on the use of nuclear energy, and his own contribution to the field of nuclear engineering. He also postulates on the future of nuclear energy from a perspective in the 1990s. The interviewer was Andrea Gabriel, at the time Acting Head of NCSU's Design Library. The collection consists of a CD and digital video cassettes that contain video of the oral history, as well as a printed transcript of the interview. Raymond Leroy Murray was born on February 14, 1920, in Lincoln, Nebraska and died on June 22, 2011, in Raleigh, North Carolina. He received his B.S. in education, 1940, and M.S. in physics and mathematics, 1941, from the University of Nebraska, and his Ph.D in physics from the University of Tennessee, 1950. That same year he joined the new nuclear engineering program at North Carolina State College (later University) as a physics professor. He was a key figure in establishing and operating NCSU's nuclear reactor, which was the first operated on a college campus. In 1957 he was named Burlington Professor of Physics, and from 1963 to 1974 he headed the Department of Nuclear Engineering.

North Carolina State University, College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Office of the Dean Records 1928-2012
The Office of the Dean Records from the College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences at North Carolina State University contain correspondence, brochures, budget information, curricula material, memoranda, news clippings, publications, photographs, and project files documenting the academic and administrative activities of the College. Materials range in date from 1928 to 2012. The College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (PAMS) at North Carolina State University was established in 1960 as the School of Physical Science and Applied Mathematics. The name of the school was changed to the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences in 1977, and adopted its current name in 1987. The college currently has five major academic programs: Chemistry; Marine, Earth and Atmospheric Science; Mathematics; Physics; and Statistics. Instruction in some of these academic areas, such as chemistry and mathematics, dates back to the first years of curriculum at the university.
