History

Appalachian State University began in 1899 when a group of citizens in Watauga County, under the leadership of Blanford B. Dougherty and his brother Dauphin D. Dougherty, began a movement to educate teachers in Northwest North Carolina.cite web|url=http://www.registrar.appstate.edu/catalogs/07_08_undergrad/1_theuniversity.pdf|title=Appalachian State University: A History of Service to Students|date=2008|work=Appalachian State University|accessdate=2008-07-13] Land was donated by Daniel B. Dougherty, father of the leaders in the enterprise, and by J. F. Hardin. On this site a wood frame building, costing $1,000, was erected by contributions from citizens of the town and county.cite web|url=http://www.library.appstate.edu/archives/firsthundredyears.html|title=Appalachian State University: The First 100 Years|date=1998|author=Ruth Douglas Currie, Ph.D.|publisher=Appalachian State University|accessdate=2008-07-13] In the fall of 1899, the Dougherty brothers, acting as co-principals, began the school which was named Watauga Academy. The first year saw 53 students enrolled in three grades.

In 1903, after interest in the school had spread to adjoining counties, D. D. Doughterty was convinced the state would fund institutions established to train teachers. He traveled to the state capital, Raleigh, after drafting a bill. W. C. Newland of Caldwell County introduced the bill in the North Carolina Legislature to make this a state school, with an appropriation for maintenance and for building. Captain E. F. Lovill of Watauga County, R. B. White of Franklin County, Clyde Hoey of Cleveland County and E. J. Justice of McDowell County spoke in favor of the measure. On March 9th, 1903, the bill became law, and the Appalachian Training School for Teachers was established. The school opened on October 5th, 1903 with $2,000 from the state and 325 students.

For twenty-two years there was a period of steady growth, academic development, and valuable service to the State. In 1925, the legislature changed the name to the Appalachian State Normal School and appropriated additional funding for maintenance and permanent improvement. Four years later, in 1929, the school became a four-year degree granting institution and was renamed Appalachian State Teachers College. Over 1,300 students were enrolled in degree programs offered for primary grades education, physical education, math, English, science, and history.

Appalachian attained national standards by becoming accredited by the American Association for Teacher Education in 1939, andthe Southern Association of Colleges and Schools in 1942. In 1948 a Graduate School was formed. Dr. Dougherty retired in 1955, after 56 years of serving the school. J. D. Rankin became interim president until Dr. William H. Plemmons was installed. Plemmons lead from 1955 to 1969, and his administration oversaw the addition of new buildings as campus expanded and enrollment growth to nearly 5,000 students.

Appalachian was transformed from a single-purpose teacher’s college into a multipurpose regional university and Appalachian StateTeacher’s College became Appalachian State University in 1967. Growth continued in the 1970s to around 9,500 students and 550 faculty. Afterward, three degree granting undergraduate colleges were created: Arts and Sciences, Fine and Applied Arts, and Education. Dr. Herbert Wey succeeded Plemmons as president in 1969 and was named chancellor in 1971. In 1972 Appalachian State became part of the University of North Carolina system.

Campus

Located in the Blue Ridge Mountains of northwestern North Carolina, Appalachian State University has one of the highest elevations of any university in the United States east of the Mississippi River, at convert|3333|ft|m|. The university's main campus is in downtown Boone, a town that supports a population of 13,328, [cite web|url=http://factfinder.census.gov/servlet/SAFFPopulation?_event=Search&_name=boone&_state=04000US37&_county=boone&_cityTown=boone&_zip=&_sse=on&_lang=en&pctxt=fph|title=Population Finder:Boone|date=2006|work=United States Census Bureau|accessdate=2008-07-13] compared to a total ASU enrollment of 15,871 students. The campus encompasses convert|1300|acre|km2|, including a main campus of convert|410|acre|km2| with 21 residence halls, four dining facilities, 19 academic buildings, and 11 recreation/athletic facilities.

The center of campus is considered to be Sanford Mall, an open grassy quad between the student union, dining halls, and library. Along with Sanford Hall, located on the mall's edge, it is named for Terry Sanford, a former governor of the state. Rivers Street, a thoroughfare for town and university traffic, essentially divides the campus into east and west sections with underground tunnels and a pedestrian bridge connecting the two halves. The eastern half includes Sanford Mall, Plemmons Student Union, and Belk Library, along with two communities of residence halls, Eastridge and Pinnacle. The campus on the west side has Trivette Dining Hall, the Quinn Recreation Center, Kidd Brewer Stadium, and Stadium Heights and Yosef Hollow, the two remaining residence hall communities. At the north end of campus, Bodenheimer Drive crosses over Rivers Street and leads to Appalachian Heights (an apartment-style residence hall open only to upperclassmen), Mountaineer Apartments (housing for non-traditional students), the Chancellor's House, The Living Learning Center, the Broyhill Inn and Conference Center, and Jim and Bettie Smith Stadium. The George M. Holmes Convocation Center, located at the south end of Rivers Street is the gateway and entrance to campus.

The [http://www.turchincenter.org/ Turchin Center for the Visual Arts] , located on the edge of main campus, is the university's visual art center. The Turchin Center is the largest visual arts center in northwestern North Carolina, eastern Tennessee, and southwestern Virginia. [cite web|url=http://www.turchincenter.org/about.php4|title=About Us|date=2004-2008|work=Turchin Center for the Visual Arts|accessdate=2008-07-13] It displays rotating exhibits indoors and outdoors, some exhibits being culturally specific to the Appalachians, and offers community outreach programs through art courses. Farthing Auditorium, a 1,734 seat performance venue, hosts artists from around the world.

Administration

The University of North Carolina's Board of Governors plans and develops the coordinated system of higher education with thestate. They establish university policy but delegate daily operation of Appalachian State to a chancellor. [cite web|url=http://www.web.appstate.edu/about/administration.html|title=Administration|date=2008|work=Appalachian State University|accessdate=2008-07-13] The chancellor likewise delegates some duties to the provost, several vice-chancellors, and other administrative offices. These administrative offices are advised by several university committees on the needs of campus constituents, as represented by a Faculty Senate, Staff Council and Student Government Association.

In 2004, a committee for the Appalachian Family Caravan tour created a promotional video titled "Hot Hot Hot," shown throughout the area by Chancellor Kenneth E. Peacock. The video became an inadvertent internet phenomenon and was featured on VH1’s "Web Junk 20" program in early 2006. [http://www.ifilm.com/ifilmdetail/2679633?htv=12] The video was never intended to promote Appalachian State to anyone but the Family Caravan, much less as a recruiting tool for prospective students. [http://www.theapp.appstate.edu/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=734&Itemid=0] The video is no longer used by the university, due to student and alumni protests.

In 2001, MTV's program "Road Rules" visited ASU to produce an episode called "Campus Crawl", aired on-campus during an annual, winter student swimming event called the "Polar Plunge". The show's participants also crossed a high-wire strung between Coltrane and Gardner Halls.
