Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biennial Report of the State Board of Charities and Public Welfare to the General Assembly of North Carolina, 1919-1920 The need of trained workers and leaders has been felt from the first. At the very outset of the work the State Board of Charities and Public Welfare realized this need and foresaw the necessity of immediately providing some means of offering training to workers. The Board and Commissioner of Public Welfare, therefore, rejoice at the forward looking spirit of the trustees of our University that has promptly established a school of public welfare and selected as its head Dr. Howard W. Odum, formerly of the University of Georgia and Emory College. The trustees of the State College for Women at Greensboro showed a like spirit in securing Dr. E. C. Lindeman as the head of a department of community service, Dr. Lindeman being a recognized authority on recreation. The public Welfare officials feel that they have been given not only direct and much needed practical aid, but also permanent and powerful moral support. In the step it has taken the State University has not only been quick to realize its deep seated obligation to contribute to the needs of the life of the people, but has broken ground in a pioneer field of service by State institutions for higher learning. More than a score of County Superintendents of Public Welfare and their assistants attended the six weeks institute for Public Welfare at the University last summer, and many more will attend next year. Besides this, the University department offers its advisory services directly to the people of the State.
