- Description:
- This legal filing, dated June 25, 1973, details the opposition of the plaintiffs in the case of Harris et al. vs. Ferguson et al. to a motion to dismiss the case. Included are a memorandum in opposition to motion to dismiss, motion for preliminary injunction, and brief in support of motion for preliminary injunction, prepared by Michael K. Curtis, attorney for the plaintiffs. On March 26, 1973, University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNCG) Student Government Association (SGA) had voted to reclassify (removed funding and recognition from) the Neo-Black Society. The SGA decision was overturned by university administration on the basis of faulty evidence and improper procedure by SGA, resulting in an eventual legal case that led to the Neo-Black Society's reinstatement as a recognized and funded organization. Plaintiffs in the case were members of the SGA who supported reclassification.
