Abstract:
The authors recount how East Carolina University took a big step toward integration four years before the first black student enrolled at the university when the Dave Brubeck Quartet performed there on the night of February 5, 1958.

Many black performers appeared in the following years.

Abstract:
The Jazz Age was also known for the popularity of sports on college campuses. ECTTS was no exception, with popularity so great that two leagues were created, the Athenians and Olympians. Though the 1970s became known as ECU’s Golden Age of Sports, another golden age can be perceived in the League’s two decades' dominance in campus sports.

An ECU professor didn’t have to travel far to find treasure. Among treasure discovered by Ashley White was a shipwreck, originally found around the Outer Banks in the late 1930s and much later confirmed as Blackbeard’s flagship. Another treasure trove, discovered near Ocala, FL, were coins minted during the reign of King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella.

In the midst of celebrating ECTC’s twenty fifth anniversary was mourning the death of its first president, Robert Wright. In the midst of mourning, there was a remembrance of ECTC’s accomplishments: becoming a four year college that offered graduate studies; increasing its faculty from 12 to 90; increasing its student body from 175 to more than a 1000. In the midst of mourning was also a remembrance of how its first president helped them come to pass.
