Description	Carolyn Suezette Brown Roney (1946- ) Roney recalls growing up in segregated Eastern North Carolina and wanting to become a medical doctor. She discusses her choice to attend UNCG because it had a strong science program, her first days on campus and learning that all the freshmen black students were housed together in Coit Residence Hall, being in the Glee Club for four years, and always being busy with biology and chemistry labs. Roney talks about campus traditions such as class jackets, class rings, and formal dances. She recalls meeting her future husband, Clensy Roney, on a blind date at the Grand Junior Ring Dance, attending Howard University Medical School for a few semesters before deciding to leave and get married, and being a United States Air Force wife and mother for twenty-one years. Roney concludes the interview by discussing her twenty-three year career with the Federal Investigative Service and her son, Trent, who graduated from UNCG in 1991.
