Francine McAdoo Scott (1942- ) graduated from The University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNCG) in 1964, majoring in sociology. She received her master's in education from Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. Scott remembers her reasons for choosing to attend the UNCG instead of a historical black school, her adjustment to an all-white campus, being housed with other black students in a separate section of Coit Residence Hall, and her lack of a social life on campus. She discusses the inequity of black and white public educational institutions and the 1960 Greensboro Sit-ins. Scott also talks about being able to buy a hot dog but not being able to sit down to eat it at a Tate Street drug store; teaching English at her Alma Mater, Dudley High School in Greensboro, North Carolina, after graduating from UNCG; moving to Chicago, Illinois, and working for the local government; and working as a community and schools site coordinator at Dudley High School.
