Title
Students' Affairs Document
Description
The Peabody Conservatory student body submitted this 20-page document to the administration following the firing of a beloved faculty member, Madame Renée Longy. It includes many complaints and incidents that were contributing to a negative environment at the school, and is significant in the scope of the topics it covers and the poignancy it still has at Peabody. However, in 20 pages, race is only mentioned one time, and it is clear that racial discrimination is not an issue that the student body recognized or considered at this time.
