Professor Charles Anderson came to NC State as an instructor of mathematics in 1953.  He was promoted to the rank of assistant professor in 1970 and to associate professor in 1983.  He was an effective and dedicated teacher who was recognized by the University in 1970 by the then Provost Kelly.  While professor Anderson's record as a student advisor, faculty senate member and many other committee assignments speaks for itself, for those of us who knew him it was his commitment to his colleagues and his students that we shall remember.
