This image shows five members of the Board of Trustees standing outside at Appalachian State Teachers College (1929-1967) in the 1960s. President William Howard Plemmons (1955-1969) can be seen standing second from the right. The Board of Trustees have been a governing body of the College since it became a state-sponsored institution in 1903.

It now oversees Appalachian State under the University System's Board of Governors.
