In Memoriam: Banks C. Talley Jr.

班克斯·塔利(Bank C. Talley Jr.

没有人比银行C. Talley Jr.合并NC州在农业和工程方面的历史优势更大的影响。

长期负责学生事务的副校长and the namesake of the Talley Student Union dedicated much of his five decades of service to the university to introducing students—many from rural backgrounds—to various forms of high culture, from the Friends of the College concert series to Thompson and Stewart theatres to the opening on an on-campus museum for art and design in the building that now bears his name.

塔利(Talley)上周四在罗利(Raleigh)的家中去世。他90岁。

1951年,他在威廉·星期五(William Friday)的推荐下,从北卡罗来纳大学的教堂山(Chapel Hill)毕业后不久,他于1951年来到了北卡罗来纳州,在第二次世界大战期间,他在菲律宾的美国陆军服役后入学。

在接下来的半个世纪中,他与大学有联系,尽管他在两者之间进行了几次休息,担任州长吉姆·亨特(Jim Hunt)的首位参谋长,担任北卡罗来纳州交响乐团的执行董事- 年龄与国家历史保护信托基金会有关。

但是他总是回到罗利(Raleigh),在那里他扎根了家人,并在那里对北卡罗来纳州的学生产生了亲和力。他的职业生涯跨越了五名总理,并与重大的文化转变相吻合,包括学生团体中妇女人数的增加,融合和争取公民权利的斗争以及对越南战争的抗议。

His goal was to encourage students from all backgrounds to focus on all aspects of a college education, from academics to athletics to a variety of cultural activities that he helped attract from all over the world. During his time at the university, NC State opened dedicated spaces for music, dance, theatre and crafts, enriching the educational experiences of multiple generations of students.

该大学学生中心于1972年在雷诺体育馆和学生供应商店之间开业,于1998年以荣誉重新命名。近年来,塔利(Talley)看到的变化并获得了衷心的认可。他于2015年9月9日参加了重新仪式,并于8月在希尔斯伯勒街(Hillsborough Street)的格雷格艺术博物馆(Gregg Art&Design)盛大开幕。

塔利(Talley)与密友亨利·鲍尔斯(Henry Bowers)合作开发了大学音乐会的朋友,这将世界各地的乐团和其他优秀娱乐活动带到了雷诺兹体育馆(Reynolds Coliseum),名义季节性价格为每年7美元。

“Banks was an amazing person,” said retired Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Tom Stafford, who began working for Talley in 1971. “He had special skills with people, especially students, and for making things happen.

“他特别感谢艺术,并将其带到这个校园。他致力于发展校园学生的领导能力。他建议并指导成千上万的年轻人成为世界公民,而是全面的公民。”

塔利(Talley)致力于使北卡罗来纳州立大学成为更加多样化的校园,为所有背景的学生,教职员工和教职员工创造机会。

“He was a strong advocate for all students,” said retired Vice Chancellor for Finance and Business George Worsley, another longtime friend. “And he was quite vocal that students should receive a rounded education, that the arts were just as important to their educational experience as athletics and other activities on campus.

“他总是为这种平衡而主张。”
