Summary | Public education in North Carolina has long been a dormant issue. Only two awakenings of any consequence have taken place in all the State's history. The educational revivals under Calvin H. Wiley in 1852, and under Charles B. Aycock and James Y. Joyner in 1900, are the epochal landmarks in North Carolina's educational history. The purpose of this study has been to seek out from various places, information concerning the social, economic, and political factors tending to make a system of education imperative in this State. Also to show , the influence projected on North Carolina's school system by Calvin Henderson Wiley; why he was elected superintendent of common schools; what he did after being elected; and his contributions to education. The investigations herein recorded are the results of Intensive research of the Calvin H. Wiley Papers, in the North Carolina Historical Commission; various files in the State Library in Raleigh; and the writings of Calvin Henderson Wiley in the form of Reports in the University of North Carolina Library at Chapel Hill. |
