Description
In this postcard addressed to "The President" of Woman's College of the University of North Carolina (WCUNC), Mrs. D.M. Lucas inquires as to whether the students who "demonstrating with the negroes" were expelled. She also suggests that to make the college coeducational would be a "suicidal move" and declares most colleges to be "entirely too liberal". She disagrees with the invitations Communist Party leader Gus Hall receives to visit other colleges, and suggests they stop immediately. The postcard is apparently a response to the "selective buying campaign" recently launched by the Student Government Association against several segregated businesses on Tate Street adjacent to the WCUNC campus.
