Raleigh, Feb. 25—Graduates of North Carolina State College stay at home. According to Tal H. Stafford, Alumni Secretary, 58 per cent of the men completing a four-year course have settled in North Carolina. There are 1,511 living graduates of the institution. Of this number, 881 have cast their lot with their native State where they are prominently identified with every phase of its agricultural and industrial development.
Although the majority of State College Alumni have elected to remain in North Carolina, a few have scattered to the ends of the earth. A little over 1 per cent have located in foreign countries, or in United States possessions abroad. There are only three states in the United States in which at least one State college man has not settled.
