well for the sake of truth: "in 1938, the school of engineering was moved from chapel hill to north carolina state college in raleigh, creating resentment among some chapel hill alumni" -- north carolina through four centuries by william s. powelland for the sake of this thread:sorry bout tate, but yea i want to hear them use the "we don't have all our players" excuse. ha. fuckers.[Edited on October 14, 2008 at 5:50 PM.

what a stupid and utterly fucked up thread this has becomelook, its like this. losing tate sucks, but he's not the whole team. i really don't foresee myself blaming a loss on his absence, because there are players who can step in and do a serviceable job. and some of you need to prioritize your thoughts if you're gonna let one loudmouth determine how you feel about a guy having his college career ended

Sorry if this had previously been mentioned, but I thought that the first student to ever graduate from UNC was an engineer.

Ok here's what happened. The Morrill Land-Grant Act was signed by President Lincoln in 1862. This Act created endowments that were to be used in the establishment of colleges that would provide a “liberal and practical education” while focusing on military tactics, agriculture and the mechanical arts without excluding classical studies. Michigan State was the first school created from this Act. North Carolina gave the money to UNC to create engineering departments. In the mid-1880s, both state farmers and business leaders claimed that Chapel Hill’s "elitist" education did not meet the mandate set forth by the Morrill Land-Grant Act. On March 7, 1887 the North Carolina General Assembly authorized the establishment of North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts. The state also budgeted money for the new college and transferred North Carolina's land-grant endowment to it as well. UNC kept their engineering departments for a few decades, but State was solely created for educating students in agriculture, military science, and engineering. So yes at one point they both had engineering. Both schools also had business departments. In 1938 State became the state's main engineering school and abandoned their business curricula, while UNC became the state's main school for business and abandoned their engineering curricula.Any way you want to spin it it still comes out to NC State being created to correct the Chapel Hill mistake.

I believe your facts are wrong about military training at NCSU. UNC was a primary training ground for Naval officers and aviators for decades.
