NC STATE STUDENT MEDIA

First published in 1903, Agromeck has served as the archive of NC State culture and history as the official school yearbook for 115 years. The student publication is the oldest. Its strange name is reminiscent of the beginnings of the university when it was known as “North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts”, with the “Agro-” symbolizing agriculture and the “-meck” honoring the mechanic arts.

Today, Agromeck is still dedicated to covering events of significance on campus (as well as state and nationwide) and profiling interesting students, faculty and staff. The events covered range from sports to academics to the arts, with the hopes of representing every facet of the University equally.

Agromeck is an entirely student-run publication that is always looking for writers, designers and photographers who are passionate about what they do. No formal experience is required, as there is a lot of on-the-job training on advanced photo and design software and Associated Press style writing. There is also room for staff members to take on leadership opportunities as part of the editorial staff.

Follow Agromeck: Twitter: @ncsuagromeck Instagram: @ncsuagromeck

Students interested in joining the staff or simply curious about further involvement should email 2018-2019 Editor-in-Chief Katie Tart at agromeck-editor@ncsu.edu and plan to attend the interest meeting in the fall. To see what the staff is currently up to and purchase your copy of the 2018-2019 book, head to www.studentmedia.ncsu.edu/agromeck.

Nubian Message was founded in 1992 as a voice for African-American students at NC State. Today, the Nubian Message is a biweekly print newspaper committed to reporting the concerns of African-American and other minority students, faculty and staff. Nubian Message consistently produces content in three categories: news, features and opinion.

Last year Nubian Message celebrated its 25th anniversary, and the commemorative issue won Best of Show at the 2018 North Carolina College Media Association Conference.

The Nubian Message staff welcome students of all races, backgrounds and majors to join! As a staff member, you can gain experience in reporting and writing, editing, design or photography.

Nubian Message will hold interest meetings in the fall. For more information, contact Editor-in-Chief Keilah Davis at nubian-editor@ncsu.edu.

TUFF ON CRIME

By Madison Earp

On game days, NC State fans expect to see the sights and sounds of Wolfpack football. Tailgating with “Wagon Wheel” playing from every speaker, fans decked out in red and white with styrofoam Bojangles cups in their hands, and the cannon blasting as the team runs onto the field. However, for K-9 dog Reed and her handler Officer Jeffery Morales, the sights and sounds of Wolfpack football are a little bit different.

She can not only search cars and buildings like a normal explosive detection dog, she can also search people for explosives. Reed is trained in detecting 10 different kinds of explosives. She came to NC State in 2016, making her debut at the first home football game that September. Ever since then, Reed has been at almost every single game, working hard to make sure fans are safe.

“Reed’s kind of high maintenance,” Morales said. “She’s a little workaholic.”

Football season, especially, is a busy time of year for Reed and Officer Morales. Football games are a huge task, and it’s a lot of work for Reed. The night before games, Reed and Officer Morales must search the Murphy Football Center. However, depending on the day of the week, they may have to search it the same day as the game. On game day, they not only search Vaughn Towers, they must also search the concourse. Reed weaves her way in between Wolfpack fans, trying to catch a whiff of any explosives.

“When the gates open, she has to search the 60,000 people coming in and the whole stadium,” Morales said. “It’s a lot on dogs.”

However, Reed is up for the challenge. The Labrador retriever went through several months of rigorous training, being put to test in all different types of scenarios. Once she successfully completed basic training, Reed was ready to be paired with a handler. Trainers take time to carefully match a dog with the proper handler.

“It’s almost like dancing,” Morales said. “With some people it feels weird, and with some people it just feels right.”

Officer Morales has had prior experience handling K-9 Units.

He worked two drug dogs before becoming Reed’s handler.

His history handling K-9 Units has enabled him to maximize his training with Reed.

Officer Jeffrey Morales and Reed, the Labrador Retriever, pose for a portrait at the NC State University Police Department. Reed is one of two specially trained “person-borne” explosion detection dogs that were welcomed to campus last year.

“Weeks and weeks of training Reed, and my prior experience, we now know what the other person thinks,” Morales said.

Labrador retrievers are known for intelligence, friendliness and sense of smell. While Reed is friendly with every stranger, she knows when she has a job to do. Morales says that Reed is always on her A game when on the job, but once they get home for the day, she turns into a lovable and friendly dog.

When Reed isn’t at football games, she can be seen working a variety of events throughout the year. As one of the only person-borne explosive detection dogs in the area, she’s worked professional football and basketball games, the Master’s golf tournament and political events. While she may not be what part of the sights and sounds fans think of when they think “game day,” she plays a key role in every single Wolfpack football game.

This story was adapted from the 2018 edition of Agromeck, NC State’s yearbook.

NC STATE SPORT

By Andrew Schnittker, Technician

NC State is a sports school; there is no doubt about it. With a spot in the ACC, the best college basketball conference in the country and one of the best for football, and a rich history as one of the four schools on “Tobacco Road”, the heartland of college basketball, Wolfpack fans have seen it all.

This includes a whole range of experiences, from bottom-feeder seasons to men’s basketball’s magical run to an NCAA Championship in 1983. This has spawned a number of great traditions for students at NC State when it comes to sports, so here’s a few you should definitely try out in your time here.

1.

Tailgating: This tradition is obviously not limited to NC State, but is still a great activity for Wolfpack fans. Students can be seen gathering in the parking lots around Carter-Finley Stadium hours before kickoff to hang out with friends, play their favorite tailgating games such as cornhole or simply tossing a football around. This includes the great tradition of heading out at 7 a.m. or earlier to tailgate for a noon kickoff.

So before you head into Carter-Finley Stadium to watch Kelvin Harmon make that jaw-dropping catch, check out Bradley Chubb’s jersey on display and take in the game with your buddies, grab some friends, pack a cooler with some age-appropriate beverages, get your Bojangles tailgate special or some meats to throw on the grill, and head to the parking lot for a good time before the game.

2.

Run to the Belltower: This one is a tradition unique to NC State, and it’s a great one. After a big victory at home or away, thousands of students run to the landmark on Hillsborough Street to celebrate.

The scene last year after men’s basketball’s stunning win at UNC-Chapel Hill included a huge party around the Belltower, complete with Kevin Keatts and company driving down Hillsborough Street on the team bus before heading to Talley Student Union to serve ice cream.

After you finish watching that big victory down the road and your heart rate returns to somewhat normal, lace up your running shoes and head to the Belltower to celebrate with thousands of your closest friends.

RTS TRADITIONS 3.

4.

Eat at Amedeo’s: This isn’t totally related to a sporting event, but it’s a good one. Amedeo’s is an Italian restaurant on Western Boulevard that features delicious appetizers, pizza, pasta and tons of NC State history.

The restaurant is decorated with pictures and posters from all sports and all eras for the Wolfpack, so head in for a bite to eat and a trip down NC State memory lane.

Catch a game at Sammy’s or Player’s Retreat: Two great sports bars (and they have plenty of good non-alcoholic beverages and food options for those under 21) near campus for watching the big game. Sammy’s is conveniently located on Avent Ferry, and Player’s Retreat is on Hillsborough Street. Both feature plenty of NC State decorations and are a perfect locale to take in the action with a group of friends.

5.

Check out a non-revenue sport: This isn’t so much a tradition as a piece of advice. While Dave Doeren and Kevin Keatts are doing great things with their respective programs, NC State has plenty to offer beyond the headlines in football and men’s basketball. Women’s Students wear pink paint for the Women’s Basketball Play4Kay game, an anbasketball is coming off a run to the nual home game dedicated to raising money and awareness for women’s canSweet 16 and plays at historic Reynolds cers in the name of former coach Kay Yow.

Photo by Nicholas Faulkner Swimming and wrestling are national championship contenders, both soccer teams are strong, baseball has been thriving for years under head coach Elliott Avent and there are several more. No matter what your favorite sport is, NC State likely offers something to entertain you, and you might even find something new you enjoy watching, so don’t hesitate to check out all of the school’s athletic programs.

WELCOME WEEK: Start the school year by getting involved

At

the beginning of the school year, both incoming students as well as those returning to campus are met with a week of wonderful activities to welcome them to another year of study here at NC State. Throughout Wolfpack Welcome Week, a variety of fun activities, events and more are set up, and act as wonderful opportunities for students to get involved in the campus community.

Planning one’s entry over the summer is highly encouraged. Submissions for the Wolf Den Challenge close on Aug 21 and the contest’s winners are announced at Packapalooza. Contestants enter the contest through NC State’s housing website at housing.dasa.ncsu.edu/wolf-den-design-challenge.

Be sure to also keep an eye out for any of the activities hosted by the Union Activities Board, commonly referred to as the UAB, throughout Wolfpack Welcome Week. Events such as film screenings, trivia nights and more will appear throughout the year and can be found at orgs.ncsu.edu/uab.

Next, for students looking for a reason to spruce up their dorm room at the beginning of the year, keep an eye out for this year’s Wolf Den Design Challenge. This contest seeks to find who on campus can design and decorate the best looking dorm room. Collaboration is key in this competition and roommates need to work together to coordinate and plan what their room will ultimately look like.

Before celebrating the start of the academic year at Packapalooza with headliner Parmalee, there are several large events worth checking out. Miller Field will be flooded with students drawn by free food and games during RecFest on Aug. 19. On Aug. 20, students will line up for a midnight, non-competitive road race around campus. Finally, on Aug. 24, students are treated to a free, silent disco —a unique event where students don headphones and dance to music played across multiple channels— known as Pack Disco.

This year’s event features three categories students can place in, as well as a grand prize spot.

“First, there’s a Wolfpack Spirit category, which is really a fan category for for people with lots of NC State and Wolfpack stuff in the room,” said John Starbuck, the marketing manager at the Division of Academic and Student Affairs. “There’s also a Home Sweet Home category, which the best way to describe would be like HGTV or Pinterest-style room. Then there’s the Sustainable Room, and that would be with reused and repurposed items for an eco-friendly look.”

For both participating students and those who are simply interested in seeing this year’s entries, Starbuck hopes that this will inspire people to collaborate with one another and to get to know their roommate before move-in.

“We want students to collaborate with each other during the summer before they move in,” Starbuck said. “It’s really heavily geared towards the firstyear students, and we thought that the contest would help students to be more collaborative and mindful about their space so that they would have a

SIGN UP NOW FOR THE 2018-2019 SCHOOL YEAR!

This poem originally appeared in the 2018 edition of Windhover, NC State’s literary and arts magazine.

By Griffin James We walked through her backyard, past the lumber pile, and her dad watering their garden with a red hose.

We walked between two boards, blackened with age, worn by last year’s hurricane. We followed a path of beaten down grass to a field beyond the trees.

Past the pond where we went fishing last summer, our feet moving in time like dancers.

We approached the abandoned silo her neighbor forgot he owned, the ladder squeaked with age, rust stuck to the sides like wallpaper. I watched her climb ahead of me, each foot moved with certainty, climbing higher and higher as if she were sprouting from the ground.

Celebrating On Hillsborough:

Packapalooza

By Maggie He

Editor’s Note: Packapalooza is a day-long festival that ends Wolfpack Welcome Week and starts the academic year. Each year, student organizations, athletes and campus departments come together with local vendors and sponsors to celebrate all things Wolfpack.

Before attending your first Packapalooza on Aug. 25, see what the Agromeck yearbook had to say about last year’s event.

More than 60,000 people flooded Hillsborough Street on Aug. 19 as Packapalooza kicked off on a warm, sunny Saturday afternoon. This annual block party drew out students and faculty of the Pack, as well as Raleigh residents of all ages.

The street fair-esque setting was perfect for a family outing or evening date. Street vendors, live music and a variety of foods were just a few popular favorites of the event. Students can start as early or as late and stay for as long as they’d like. While some students start their day early to get their hands on all the free gear — t-shirts, water bottles, koozies, key chains — others started lining up at the stage by the Belltower at 5 p.m. to await the music performance of the night. This year, the 1990s band the Spin Doctors gave the headliner concert which lasted late into the night.

Vendors from all over Raleigh catered the crowded event. There was a plethora of food options at Packapalooza. In attendance were food trucks carrying Mexican tacos, Vietnamese bahn mi, Greek gyros and American fried chicken. Most college students were savoring the great variety, a privilege any student can recognize after a couple weeks of dining hall options. To satisfy those with a sweet tooth, there were funnel cakes, pina coladas and ice cream swirls in just about every flavor you can think of. And, for the savory eaters,

Packapalooza also brought turkey legs, corn dogs and all things fried — pickles, Oreos, candy bars — to the mix.

Packapalooza has become an NC State tradition signifying the end of Wolfpack Welcome Week and celebration of the new school year.

Student organizations get a special section stretching half the length of the entire street to garner interest in their organizations. The Dance Marathon club filled the street with music as they showed off their moves to prospective new participants. The Timmy Global Health team and Feed the Pack service organization were also recruiting members with captivating presentations about their work.

Bentley Cook, a second-year studying biology, said the most memorable part of exploring the student organizations was reflecting on Timmy Global Health’s question, “What does Global Health mean to you?” Cook said he loved that Packapalooza gave him an opportunity to not only have fun with friends but also learn more about student life.

Jayna Lennon, a second-year studying political science and economics, and the student coordinator of volunteer programming with Feed the Pack said, “I enjoyed meeting the freshmen on campus and sharing the goals of Feed the Pack.” Lennon said she believes Packapalooza brought many new volunteers to Feed the Pack. Other student-run organizations recruiting members at the Wolfpack block party included zoology club, pre-health club, recreational sports teams, Relay for Life and more.

Every year, Packapalooza also features the debut of Tuffy the “wolf” and a student-athlete student panel. Avid Wolfpack fans grasped the opportunity to have posters, t-shirts and hats signed before the season kicks off.

Casey Crouse, a second-year studying electrical and computer engineering major said, “My favorite part of Packapalooza was definitely meeting Tuffy. It was worth the 30-minute wait in line!” Like Crouse, many dog lovers of the Pack stood in line for a few precious minutes with Tuffy.

This story was adapted from the 2018 edition of Agromeck, NC State’s yearbook.

What being a in college means to me

DJ

By Jake Mitchell, WKNC Editor’s Note: Jake Mitchell, a third-year studying agriculture and life sciences and 88.1 WKNC’s Program Director, talks about the art of DJing and how his love of music brought him to NC State’s student radio station.

DJs approach the craft in a variety of ways. On one end of the spectrum, there are scratch DJs and techno DJs who employ turntables and a wealth of turntable skills to blend and transform their favorite tracks into something completely new and unique. On the other end, being a DJ can be as simple as taking over the aux cord at a friend’s house and cueing up their favorite playlist.

Though these two approaches are worlds apart, both of these types of DJs are united in their desire to share music in hopes of inspiring a certain feeling in their peers. At their

30 | Orientation 2018

core, all any DJ wants is to share the music they love with an audience who is willing to listen.

If you’re a person who spends a significant amount of time listening to, reading about or thinking about music, it can sometimes be hard to find others to talk with about the subject.

As a college freshman, music was one of my only serious interests, and I was often frustrated by my peers’ lack of interest in music; I felt like my efforts to introduce people to new music were met with apathy.

DJing, however, gives you the ability to create a context surrounding these songs you want people to hear and — depending on where you position a song in a mix or playlist — your song can either clear out a room or cause a dancefloor to erupt. To me, watching people dance to songs and genres they previously snubbed has been one of the most satisfying parts of DJing.

Though I was already a party DJ in my own right, when I came to NC State I quickly found my home at WKNC. Not only did DJing on the radio offer me a far larger platform to share my music, but I was greeted by a ton of friendly and like-minded people who quickly became friends.

WKNC’s training class prepared me well for being a radio DJ but still left plenty of room for creativity and exploration in my sets. I think I speak for a lot of my peers, as well as myself, when I say that college radio has been central and critical in my college experience, and I would absolutely encourage anyone that considers themselves a music head to give WKNC, and becoming a DJ, a look.

Music Festivals: what to look out for

Celebrating North Carolina

By Jules Conlon, WKNC Editor’s Note: Jules Conlon, a fourth-year studying biological science and 88.1 WKNC’s General Manager, shares what she believes are music festivals worth checking out while in college.

Festival for the Eno July 4 and 7, 2018, Durham If relaxing in nature is your thing, the Festival for the Eno might be for you. Proceeds from the concert benefit the Eno River Association, a local organization with the goal to conserve natural resources and wildlife. This year’s talent included Lucy Dacus and The Bowerbirds.

But Festival for the Eno isn’t the only cool fest in the area! Here’s a few more events you should definitely try and check out in North Carolina.

Art of Cool Sept. 28-29, 2018, Durham

Hopscotch Music Festival Sept. 6-8, 2018, Raleigh If you’re from the Raleigh area, you’ve probably heard of Hopscotch Music Festival, a (recently expanded to four-day) event held across multiple venues downtown every September.

Hopscotch is great because it’s so close, features a diverse lineup of musicians — some of my favorite Hopscotch performances over the years have been from Jenny Hval, Young Thug and Ought — and it’s honestly pretty fun to run around from venue to venue like you’re participating in a musical scavenger hunt. This year’s lineup includes headliners Miguel, Grizzly Bear and Thundercat.

Dreamville Music Festival Sept. 15, 2018, Raleigh A brand new contender in the Raleigh music scene is Dreamville Music Festival, conveniently located at the beautiful Dorothea Dix Park and both created and headlined by local hip-hop legend J. Cole. The inaugural lineup has yet to be announced at the time of my writing this, but I honestly have some pretty high hopes.

Groove in the Garden Sept. 22, 2018, Raleigh If you’re living in the dorms without a car, you might want something you can walk to. The perfect solution is Groove in the Garden, taking place in October at the Raleigh Rose Garden — mere minutes’ walk from campus and in a beautiful location. Not only that, but the event is partnering this year with local nonprofit Girls Rock NC, so you can feel good about spending your money.

Durham is home to yet another festival in Art of Cool. Their fifth annual rendition is scheduled for late September at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park and features such names as Erykah Badu and Nas. The festival began with a jazz-heavy lineup and has evolved to include more hip-hop and R&B artists.

Shakori Hills Grassroots Festival Oct. 4-7, 2018, Pittsboro Shakori Hills Grassroots Festival is the area’s primary camping festival and it takes place in scenic Pittsboro, North Carolina. The fest occurs in both fall and spring, though the spring edition is definitely the more popular of the two. Shakori features mostly folk and bluegrass music. The spring festival is always directly in the middle of finals, though, so I’ve never been!

Moogfest April 25-28, 2019, Durham Located in Durham, Moogfest is focused on experimental and electronic music and features talks, workshops and demonstrations from the renowned Moog synthesizer brand. Alums include such names as Flying Lotus, Grimes and Gary Numan. Moogfest typically occurs in late May — perfect timing for students. Like Hopscotch, Moogfest is a multi-venue event and gives you a good tour of downtown Durham.

There’s really something for everyone in the Triangle area festival scene, and even if you’re stuck near campus, you have lots of options. Hope to catch some of you at a show this year!

Showcasing Multicultural Organizations a In

college (and especially at a predominantly white one), many incoming students look for organizations that allow them to connect with students of similar cultural backgrounds. Many also seek to learn about a culture different from their own. Since NC State has more than 700 student organizations, there are many opportunities to engage with, and learn from, various racial, ethnic and religious groups. Here are a few that host signature annual events:

Mi Familia

University Activities Board’s Black Students Board

Asian Students Association

The mission of University Activities Board it to produce quality programming “for the students, by the students.” The Black Students Board, one of UAB’s six committees, hosts programs throughout the year that educate the NC State community about African American culture.

The Asian Students Association focuses on educating the NC State community about Asian culture.

Mi Familia is a social, cultural and political organization for Latinx students and culture. Last year, Mi Familia celebrated its 15th year at NC State with a Quinceañera.

Signature Events: Asian Students Association hosts Asia Night, an annual culture showcase. In addition, Asian Students Association, along with affiliated organizations, hosts programs during NC State’s celebration of Asian Pacific Islander Desi American Heritage Month in the spring.

Signature Events: Every year, Mi Familia events hosts Somos, a showcase of Latinx culture. Mi Familia also sponsors many programs during Latinx History Month, which is celebrated in September and October.

Signature Events: In April, BSB coordinates Pan-Afrikan Week, a week-long celebration of culture throughout the African diaspora.

STOP breath

And take a

Places to de-stress around campus

By Freja Carlson, Technician

W

hile in school, it is always important to have a chance to escape from the stress of classes and other things going on in our lives. Locating nice places on or near campus is important so you can have a quick, easy getaway. There are a variety of places on and near campus to take a break.

Tucker/Owen Beach

This volleyball court sits in between the Tucker and Owen residence halls. Every year, the “Battle for the Beach” takes place on this volleyball court, with the winner earning the right to the “beach” for the rest of that academic year.

On main campus there is Tucker/Owen Beach, located between the two residence halls from which it gets its name. The area has a volleyball court where students can release some stress through exercise with friends. There is also a large grassy area where students can sunbathe with a book, hang out with peers or take a nap. The surrounding trees also offer excellent natural hammock posts to catch a relaxing nap between or after classes. Being surrounded by five residence halls, it is a natural place to get to know your fellow students. Especially since first-years tend to live in the area, making some friends can help reduce stress as well.

Amanda Kohl, a second-year studying parks, recreation and tourism management, has lived by the beach the past two years and enjoys spending time in the space.

“It’s a good place to be because it has a lot of scenery, there’s trees and a big grassy area so you can just layout and tan, watch Netflix, play soccer, throw a frisbee or play volleyball on the beach volleyball court,” Kohl said. “I feel that I always see someone I know out there and I’ve never felt super stressed out there.”

Lake Johnson If you’re looking to get a little further away, Lake Johnson is a short trip down Avent Ferry Road. The lake has a three-mile paved walking trail around its perimeter along with two additional unpaved miles. To take a break from running on treadmills at Carmichael, the trails can provide a change of scenery and a new challenge due to some hills in the path. There are also kayaks, canoes and paddle boats available for rental from the start of May to the end of September for those wanting to get out on the water.

School can be stressful so it is important to take time for yourself to maintain good mental health. At Lake Johnson, students can bike or walk pets on many surrounding trails. Students can also legally fish from the lake’s bridge.

Several kinds of boats, such as kayaks, canoes, and pedal boats are available at Lake Johnson for rental by the hour. Lake Johnson Park offers several hundred acres of land available for hiking, boating and other outdoor activities.

Court of North Carolina If you want to stay on campus but are looking for a quieter place to relax or study, Court of North Carolina may be just the place. The area once boasted 100 trees to represent the 100 counties of North Carolina, but due to a hurricane, some of the trees did not survive. The area is currently a mostly green space offering space to play frisbee, study outdoors, or just relax with some friends. If you are there in the evening, you may catch a game of cricket being played as well.

Besides relaxing with friends or studying, the area provides a nice place for self reflection as well. If you are into journaling or poetry, Court of North Carolina provides a nice backdrop for inspiration. Located right by the college of design, education and an array of CHASS majors, the area provides a nice space for work on papers or projects before class on nice days.

Price Music Hall If you want to de-stress, but not necessarily be outdoors, Price Music Hall is a great place to take a break. There are practice rooms available to all students, so you don’t have to be a music major to utilize the space.

“I usually de-stress in Price because there are practice rooms that you can use to play piano or just take a minute for yourself — although the practice rooms are a high traffic place since they are so limited with half of the rooms being reserved for music minors,” said Danielle Wyckoff, a third-year studying economics. “I was in band in high school so being around music is calming while also exciting.”

J. C. Raulston Arboretum If you’re wanting to get off campus for a bit, the arboretum is a short drive down Hillsborough Street onto Beryl Road. The arboretum is affiliated with NC State and offers a variety of places to relax and enjoy nature. With paths scattered all throughout the gardens, the arboretum provides a nice place to go for a walk and see some plants you may not see elsewhere. There are also benches to relax on or to study at if you want a change of scenery from campus.

Other than studying or just relaxing in nature, the arboretum is a unique place to go on a date to spend some quality time with a significant other. Instead of spending nice days inside at a movie theater, being out in nature can be a nice change. The arboretum is also free, so the money you save on movie tickets can be used to pick up some supplies for a picnic in the gardens.
