Contents: |
The Walter A. Lundy Files, Red and Black (Fall 1953) Integration Issue Papers consist of correspondence, clippings and printed
materials. The materials document the response on both local and national levels to the dispute between Walter Lundy and Bill
Shipp, editor and managing editor of the Red and Black, the student paper of the University of Georgia, and the Board of Regents
of the University System led by Roy V. Harris. The debate concerned Lundy and Shipp's statements in two editorial columns
advocating the end of racial segregation in Georgia's public schools. The majority of the correspondents support Lundy and
Shipp for their position on segregation while others who do not favor the editors' proposals, decry efforts by Harris and
the University of Georgia to proscribe the newspaper's control over its editorial content. Many of the letters and newsclipping
come from other student newspapers across the country.
