- Description:
- In this August 23, 1963 letter to Guilford College Trustee Robert Frazier, N.C. English expresses concern over "screwball" conferences for young people being held at Guilford College. English takes exception to the conferences, claiming they are "certainly contrary to our good old fashion Quaker principles." English also asks the trustees to take action against youths who he claims have taken on the look of "beatniks," and not to leave the issue up to the "radical" administrators. There is also a postscript recommending a reprimand of a professor for supporting a student who marched with African American protesters in Greensboro, presumably as a part of demonstrations to desegregate local businesses.
