Title:
Groundbreaking Ceremony pamphlet, April 3, 1992
Description:
This ceremonial hard hat was worn by President Terry Sanford at the 1992 groundbreaking ceremony for the Sanford Institute of Public Policy. While the Institute of Policy Sciences and Public Affairs had existed since 1971, the name change recognized President Sanford’s commitment to public service as a former governor and U.S. senator. During his tenure as Duke President from 1969 to 1985, Sanford was widely credited with transforming Duke into a world-class research institution. The Sanford Institute became the Sanford School of Public Policy in 2009.
