Description<\/strong><\/td>\nMounted newspaper clipping from the Montgomery News Messenger, dated February 16, 1956. Article notes that there are four black students at VPI with the first student arriving in 1953. This early and quiet integration is contrasted with UVA’s later acceptance of its first black student and the violence accompanying integration in other southern states. Article also contrasts VPI’s failure to allow Negro students to live or eat on campus with UVA’s more open policies, and Virginia’s refusal at that time to allow Negroes to take courses in predominately white universities that were available in predominantly African-American universities.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
