W. Kerr Scott Hall Dedication, 1966, photo 1

This image shows a group of people standing outside the entrance to I. G. Greer Hall, built 1950, to attend the dedication ceremony of Kerr Scott Hall, built 1961, on October 30, 1966. Lt. Governor Robert Scott (1964-1968) can be seen standing on the left in the foreground, and Appalachian State's Business Director Ned Trivette and Alumni Affairs Director Ned Trivette can be seen standing in the background. Kerr Scott Hall served as home for the Department of Industrial Arts at Appalachian State Teachers College (1929-1967). Standing next to Ned Trivette is Mr. Robert Snead, Director of Development. It was expanded in 1986, and now houses the Department of Technology. It replaced an older building known as the Arts and Crafts Building, built 1917, that housed the Manual Training Program, the precursor to the Industrial Arts Program. The building was rededicated as Katherine Harper Hall in 2007.
