A conversation with Dr. Clifford Kuhn
Today is May 27.
If we were to turn Georgia’s clock back 61 years to this date in 1954, we’d witness a rather extreme reaction by University of Georgia students to the placement of a horse on their campus.
As Georgia State University associate professor of history, Dr. Clifford Kuhn explains, the horse was a sculpture and part of a well-intentioned effort to expose the university community to some “culture.”
