1950 Missouri
1952 Tennessee (grad school), (undergrad was 1961)

The point of this thread is to commend Arkansas for leading the way.

Also, I'd like to add that in 1875, 90% of the student population at the University of South Carolina was black.
We were way ahead of the curve...thanks to Radical Reconstruction.

Also technically Missouri seemed to be the first to fully integrate their school.
Kudos to Mizzou.

Ok.

To be fair, our very first class also had our very first African American student. Our school was less racially charged than our football team (thanks Frank)... In years where there were no black students it was probable that there were no black applicants, even today there aren't many black people in NWA but before WW2 it was like Wonder bread up here.

As always, Mississippi State is last.

All of our schools are on this list for the same reason. It's okay.

1938 -- University of Missouri Law School
Schools were segregated.
Jim Crow laws existed.
The past cannot be changed.
