What next, black students demanding completely separate facilities at the university (libraries, dining facilities, etc.)?

I'm a bit confused, does this mean that you may violate the law and segregate according to race in public accommodations if you are either a white academic or if you are black?

Does this mean that Jerry Falwell's University may segregate according to race, or only pedigreed Northeastern universities?

It’s the north east where these people shout racist towards southerners and the south while living in their white utopias.

I’m glad my life took place when it did:
America at her zenith. Where she is headed
now isn’t going to be good for anybody.

“Segregation is just fine as long as it works to the advantage of the right color.”

There isn’t a downside here for whites.

If they want segregation, give it to them. MLK must be turning in his grave.

I recommend they name the dorm the George Corley Wallace, Jr Memorial Dormitory.
