In 1969, Virginia "Anne" Ginger Scott sued for her admission into the College of Arts in Sciences. In this episode, we'll discuss that lawsuit, but we'll also leave the district court where it was filed and travel all the way over to the Supreme Court to understand how national legal trends made coeducation an imperative back at UVA.
