Title	The Quaker
Date	1969
Creator	Guilford College
Biographical/historical note	Guilford College, a Quaker-supported four-year liberal arts school in Greensboro, N.C., was chartered in 1834 and opened in 1837 as New Garden Boarding School. The name was changed to Guilford College in 1888. During the Civil War, the campus became a station on the Underground Railroad as well as a center of resistance to Confederate conscription and requisitioning efforts. True to Quaker tradition, students at Guilford were active in the civil rights and antiwar movements of the 1960s.
Subject headings	Guilford College
Topics	Race relations at Guilford College
Place	Greensboro (N.C.)
Description	The 1969 Guilford College yearbook, The Quaker, highlights the involvement of African American students, as well as the many protests in which students were involved. From press conferences, to participating in marches for freedom of speech for soldiers at UNC Chapel Hill, to continued efforts to break down barriers between Guilford's main and downtown campuses, and continued integration of the college's sports teams and organizations, the students of Guilford College were active in the community during the 1969 school year. Also notable was the establishment of Brothers and Sisters in Blackness (BASIB), a student organization formed to make white students more aware of their black peers and their culture.
