1963 - Separate campuses are built for UNC-Charlotte and Carver
College.
|
| Charlotte College becomes a four-year institution and part of the University of North Carolina system. By law, UNC-Charlotte is now desegregated. However, the new campus is built in the northeast part of the county, far removed from black neighborhoods. At the same time, the state builds a new campus for Carver College in a black neighborhood. Kelly Alexander of the NAACP argues that the government should integrate UNC-Charlotte rather than build separate colleges. |
