This image shows a Gregg Methods Conference on data processing held by the College of Business in an auditorium at Appalachian State University (1967-current) in the summer of 1971. People can be seen sitting in rows at tables in front of typewriters on the stage, while audience members watch in the foreground. The College of Business was established in 1970-71 with four distinct departments, including accounting, business administration, business, economic and occupational education, and economics. It occupied Smith-Wright Hall, built 1940, from 1970 to 1976, when John A. Walker Hall, built 1975, was opened. The college was dedicated to John A. Walker, founder of Lowe's Companies, in 1976.
