http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/findingaids/ua022_004

The records of the O. Max Gardner Award at North Carolina State University contain correspondence; reports and annual reports; nominations for award recipients; and programs, dinner seating lists, and transcripts of speeches from events where the O. Max Gardner Award was conferred. Materials range in date from 1949 to 2008. The O. Max Gardner Award was established in 1949 to recognize the faculty member from among all University of North Carolina (UNC) system schools who has "...made the greatest contribution to the human race." Nominations for faculty representatives are collected at each university during the fall of the academic year, and one to three candidates are selected from among those nominees to represent each university. From this pool, one or two faculty members are chosen in the spring of the academic year by the UNC Board of Governors' Committee as the recipient(s) of the O. Max Gardner Award for that academic year. At North Carolina State University, the O. Max Gardner Award nominees are selected by a committee reporting to the Provost's Office.
