- This October 1, 1971 article published in the Guilford College student newspaper, The Guilfordian, reports on the racial discrimination of college staff, Dick Woodward, by the local Longview Golf Club.

The article reports on the complaints filed with Guilford County Community Relations Department, the North Carolina Human Relations Commission, the U.S. Civil Rights Commission, and the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice.
