- Description:
- This document, dated February 10, 1960, is a chronological listing of events surrounding the Greensboro sit-ins, which began February 1, 1960, including the response of Woman's College and Chancellor Gordon William Blackwell. The timeline documents negotiations involving WCUNC and North Carolina A&T State University. Several WCUNC students participated in the sit-ins, and the timeline concludes with a mention of Blackwell's address to the student body in which he was critical of student participation. There is a cover letter showing that the timeline was sent by Blackwell to the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees and to University of North Carolina President William Friday.
