Western Carolina University -- Students -- Attitudes

In the November 4, 1987 issue of the Western Carolinian, Chris Geis writes a column titled "Where's Rob[b] Schrof?" about the apathy of students at WCU. He reminisces about the days two years ago when the writings of Robb Schrof, Billy Graham, and Carl Brickman could rile up the student body. The students were particularly responsive when the subject of Lavender Bridges came up. Lavender Bridges, an anonymously founded student organization open to all individuals, aimed to promote awareness of lesbian and gay lifestyle, provide lesbian and gay resources, and increase communication with all students and community members. The first organizational meeting took place October 10, 1985 and was officially recognized by the office of Student Development on December 13, 1985. The last mention of the group appeared in the October 10, 1991 issue of the Western Carolinian.
