Description	Key Barkley (1900-2001) was a professor in the department of psychology from 1931-1949. He also served as dean of men when men were admitted to The Woman's College of the University of North Carolina during the Great Depression and was responsible for establishing a chapter of Phi Beta Kappa on campus. Barkley describes his work establishing a psychology lab at Woman's College and relates the close mindedness, fearful atmosphere and lack of research he found on the campus. He tells of the tenure of several key figures including Julius Foust, Frank Porter Graham, and Harriet Elliott. He describes the college being coeducational during the Depression, recalls the pacifist movement of the 1930s and explains the impact of WWII on campus. He also describes counseling students on life decisions, personal problems and homosexuality.
