Judge rules against Texas college in desegregation case
Federal Judge Joe B. Dooley ordered West Texas State College to admit John Matthew Shipp, a 21 year old who had been denied admission because of race. The ruling marks a major desegregation precedent for Texas higher education and challenges the three type system of all Negro, all white, and integrated schools. The decision cites the 1954 Supreme Court ruling and suggests most Texas public colleges are already effectively desegregated. The case leaves Texas A&M and Prairie View A&M as the remaining untested institutions in the system.
