Andrew Jackson Greene kept this diary from December 18, 1930 through February 28, 1931. This diary sees Greene through Christmas, the start of a new semester, and the start of a new year. He resolved to, in the new year, ”be more cheerful and to see more good things in living.”

This diary was kept by Andrew Jackson Greene from January 5 through March 3, 1932. The weather is his typical first topic to write about it. He wrote about the winter snow and harsh winds frequently. He also included information about the Appalachian State Normal School and the community in addition to the typical record of his daily activities.

In this diary, Greene includes the usual weather reports, writings about the college, and community information. Upon not feeling well, Greene took time to arrange his diaries. At this point he had “almost 100 composition books filled with current events and personal meditations.” Greene wrote that he may have recorded things that should be erased. He wrote that readers should remember he is human.
