Now, Mr Nkemdiche, do you really want to go to a college that is that backwards?

Contrast Mississippi with Clemson


Nov 8, 2012, 9:04 AM

Quote from yahoo article:
"In September 1962, the school was desegregated, amid protests, fires, and riots. Two people died and hundreds were injured in the chaos."

Contrast that with what happened at Clemson:

Matthew Perry drove Gantt to Clemson on
January 28, 1963 and arrived on campus at 1:33
p.m. The whole world was watching. A black
custodian who watched quietly within a crowd of
two hundred national and international reporters
best summarized the events. He said, “Nothing
happened.” Thus, one of the most significant
events in the history of school desegregation ended
without incident.
Why did Clemson College integrate with dignity
while her sister institutions succumbed to violence?
One reason might be what is termed the
South Carolinians’ historic “uniqueness, courtly
manners, distinctive character, and their Blue Blood
Heritage.”

Harvey Gantt and the Desegregation of Clemson University,1960-1963Dr. H. Lewis Suggs
Professor of American History - Clemson University
