Interview covers Carignan’s observations and reflections on the social world of campus during her years at Bates: gender relations, race relations, the regional composition of the student body, student/ administration relations, student/ faculty relations, recreation, contests over the meaning of being a woman and a sense of community; posture photos; pranks; compulsory chapel; the political world of campus: her political views, campus political climate, the administration’s response to drinking, and comparison to activism at other campuses in the 1960s; relations between the College and local community; and anti-Franco-American sentiment in Lewiston-Auburn.
