Clarksville, TN – Forty years ago, Glenn Carter, an Austin Peay State University (APSU) sociology professor, volunteered to serve as the faculty advisor for a new organization, the Student Coalition for Gay Rights. It wasn’t an easy assignment.
That February, the club’s students were told their organization had “no place at Austin Peay State University,” which meant they would not be recognized as an official student group.
