The New Carter Wall

Building The Wall

This fall ETSU will proudly unveil a tribute to the recipients of the prestigious George L. Carter Award with a new wall of honor. The recognition wall will be the latest addition to the Alumni Gallery located in the foyer of the Martha Street Culp Auditorium in the D.P. Culp University Center. The project was made possible through the generosity of General Shale Brick in partnership with the ETSU Foundation.

Handcrafted by some of the region’s most gifted designers, brick artists and masons, the Carter Wall is a detailed and uniquely styled monument. Its design and structure are the result of many months of detailed planning and hours of professional brick masonry. The wall features a handcrafted brick image of Carter created by Mr. Johnny Hagerman an artist with General Shale. The designer is Kelly Wall of the company design staff; The structure construction was done by General Shale staff masons. The wall will display images of those who have been honored with this prestigious award spanning back over a decade.

The wall, base structure was completed in May. The final product will be unveiled during our 2004 Homecoming activities and will serve as a lasting tribute to those current and future honorees. Named for ETSU’s first major benefactor, the Carter Award is the highest honor bestowed upon individuals by the Alumni Association.
