For best value overall among public schools, NC State comes in at No. 9. Both rankings are unchanged since last year.

In February 1985, Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers played a rollicking, sold-out concert at Reynolds Coliseum.

The country superstar, fancily dressed in bright yellow sequins and gold fringe with 5-inch yellow heels, played a 40-minute set to open for country superstar and NC State fan favorite Kenny Rogers. The two were on a three-month, 29-city tour — their first ever together — to promote their duet “Islands in the Stream.”

Parton died on Tuesday at the age of 80. Read more about her performance on campus: http://ncst.at/nHC950ZFTI3
