Un-American activities at Michigan State College: John Hannah and the Red Scare, 1946-1954.

摘要

The paper examines how Michigan State College endured the Red Scare at the student and faculty levels. Material gathered for the paper came from interviews, newspapers, and material found in the Michigan State University Archives and Historical Collections. The author concludes that, although some abuses of civil liberties and academic freedom did occur at M.S.C., the college emerged from the period relatively unscathed, due largely to the shrewd leadership of its president, John Hannah.
