Abstract:
This article examines the participation of University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill students in the national isolationist movement of the 1930s. Students became involved because they believed they could affect national and international events and because in the event of war, they would be the ones fighting. The movement collapsed the year before Pearl Harbor but was important in highlighting interaction between student groups and university administration.
