(2008-01-08)
(WABE) - On January 9th, 1961, Georgia's flagship university, the all-white University of Georgia, was about to admit its first two black students. WABE's Steve Goss asked Georgia State University history professor Clifford Kuhn to explain the significance of the event.

Kuhn began by explaining that the 1961 was not the first attempt at desegregating higher education in the state.
