Rice University Between Decisions: from Co-Education to Integration (1957-1970)

This exhibit explores how Rice University historically handles gender/sex and race relations through discussion of the huge decisions Rice made concerning these issues from 1957 to 1970—a time when Rice underwent many changes including desegregation based on gender/sex and race. 

Rice University students conducted the research behind this exhibit and developed the online presentation as part of coursework and practica lead by the university's Humanities Research Center in 2014 and 2016.
