Gantt Case Taken Up By Court Over Clemson Admission
Harvey B. Gantt 19 of Charleston seeks federal court action to enter Clemson College in South Carolina. The Fourth Circuit considers an appeal from a lower court ruling that Gantt failed to prove race was the reason for denial. Clemson contends Gantt did not complete transfer requirements and says it asked him to provide design work for evaluation. Gantt’s lawyers argue Clemson’s policies discourage Negro admissions and request an injunction allowing admission pending remand and district court action. The case follows Clemson’s prior appeal, with potential early trial before term ends.
