Chancellor John Caldwell with Student Government

Chancellor John Caldwell with Student Government

This image subtly conveys the heightened emotional tensions of the late 1960s at NCSU. Jack Barger, furthest to the left, was often met with hostile opinions of the student council by the black student body. Shortly after this image was taken, Eric Moore left student government, claiming that his presence in the organization and his appointment by Chancellor Caldwell reduced his credibility in the black community.
