The Sons Of Indiana: Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity And The Fight For Civil Rights, Gregory S. Parks, Wendy Marie Laybourn

Indiana Law Journal

The common narrative about African Americans’ quest for social justice and civil rights during the twentieth century consists, largely, of men and women working through organizations to bring about change. The typical list of organizations includes, inter alia, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the National Urban League, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. What are almost never included in this list are African American collegiate-based fraternities. However, at the turn of the twentieth century, a small group of organizations emerged founded on personal excellence, the development and sustainment of fictive-kinship ties, …

Rebel Yale: Yale Graduates And Progressive Ideals At The University Of Mississippi Law School, 1946-1970, Jennifer Paul Anderson

Dissertations

The University of Mississippi School of Law (Ole Miss Law) was the fourth public law school founded in the United States. The school was established to prevent men from leaving the state for legal education due to fears that they were being indoctrinated by eastern schools where ideologies were not consistent with those of Mississippi. One hundred years after her founding, Ole Miss Law entered into a period of turbulence as race and politics clashed on campus. From the time of the Brown decision through the Civil Rights Era, the deans and law professors at the law school were subjected …

More Education, Awareness Needed About Lesbian/Bisexual/Gay Concerns, Maine Perspective

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

Graffiti is scrawled on a sidewalk. A door of a student's dorm room is splattered in red with a defamatory message. Publicity flyers are ripped from walls. There are derogatory jokes and name-calling. Threats and realities of physical violence. Harassment. All are prejudicial actions against a minority of the population. At issue is not race, color, religion, gender, age or nationality. At issue is sexual orientation. And because college campuses are microcosms of society, the actions occur at the University of Maine and at universities throughout the country that, by their very nature, are supposedly bastions of free expression and …

If ignoring was bliss there would be many happy people at UMO. The reaction by many students to the upcoming Jeans Day shows the ignorance on the subject. People are complaining that the day will infringe on their rights and how it will cause them distress should they wear jeans and be mistaken for a homosexual.

Sam…Will Students Again Be A Political Force?, The Maine Campus

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

The Student Association of Maine has embraced an ominous task. In its effort to represent 32,000 post-secondary students throughout the state, conflicts are bound to surface. But if SAM can unify its student membership, the prospects for developing a powerful voice in Augusta, a voice that would be heard in the halls of the State House and reverberate back to individual campuses are bright.

Target: Augusta. A New Statewide Force Prepares To Focus Student Influence On Maine Politics, Jeff W. Beebe

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

"SAM" --the word has a familiar ring to it, from the sixties, when the evening news opened with the day's body counts in South Vietnam and conflicting reports of fighter-jet losses in the skies over North Vietnam--'Surface-to-Air-Missile.' Another, but altogether different, "SAM" was launched in Bangor Saturday--the Student Association of Maine. Its propellant is in the person of UMO's Peter Simin, and its payload is the interests of 32,000 post-secondary students in Maine.

Gay Legal Battle Is Over, Gil Zicklin

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

It may interest your readers to know that the Federal Courts have already decided that campus gay organizations have the right to exist and to use the university facilities made available to any other group on campus. The relevant decisions involved the University of New Hampshire, University of Georgia and Oklahoma University. This is not the first time that the Courts in interpreting and enforcing the Bill of Rights have blazed a trail for those not so well-versed in Constitutional law nor well-traveled in the realm of liberty.

Results Of Ongoing Survey Of Student Opinion Indicate A Growing Trend Toward Liberalism, Paul Betit

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

"Are you opposed to homosexual relations between consenting adults?" "Do you drink alcoholic beverages?" "Are you opposed to the dissemination of birth control devices to college students by the infirmary? "Would you favor the elimination of legal sanctions prohibiting the use of marijuana?" The answers these questions have elicited over the past seven years convince Dr. Kenneth Hayes that a social revolution has slowly and quietly changed the attitudes of students attending UMO.
