Several PAMS alumni & friends sponsored a Feb. 24 social for potential undergraduate students, held in the Dail Club in Vaughn Towers at Carter-Finley Stadium. The event attracted more than 30 prospective students, and capped off a campus visitation day. The College has found that such events are an effective way to encourage prospective students to choose NC State.

Guests enjoyed heavy hors d'oeuvres while listening to comments presented by Anita Stallings, executive director of development and college relations, Dan Solomon, dean, and Jo-Ann Cohen, associate dean for academic affairs. A panel of current students discussed their experiences with NC State, and a video provided an overview of the College.

Alumni and friends attending the event visited with the students and their parents. Those attending included Cindy Clark ('76 Statistics) and her husband, Joe Hackley, Tom Rhodes ('65 Applied Mathematics), Benton Satterfield ('89 Chemistry), John Seely ('68 Physics) and his guest Janet Cave , and Bill White ('72 Mathematics).
