Actually it was a pretty easy choice. I applied at several places-as I would suggest anyone applying to have a few options
applied and was admitted at Davidson but even with the financial aid it was still far less expensive to come to NC State.
But I had been a student in the vocational agriculture program and the Future Farmers of America and if you have worked
on the farm it's not a great leap of imagination to understand building machinery that reduces the amount of drudgery.
It's fairly easy to comprehend. So even in high school, by the time I was a junior, I had settled on agricultural engineering
at NC State, and it's been a marvelous, marvelous choice.
