The poem finishes by arguing that "it's white of them to give what tantamounts to [an integrated world], and makes us all, for what that's worth, separate but equal where it counts." It alludes to the separations of Heaven and Hell after death despite mortal bodies being segregated by race.

Its final piece, "The 20th Century vs. The U of R," argues that the University should have less of an influence on students' morality and not act as their "guardian." The piece's author, Bill Owens, addresses that the University has "many more problems; some very poor quality housing, discouragement of entrance to members of certain ethnic groups, etc." and claims that this is because of a lack of student leadership.

Description An account of the resource In this short story, a law student named Winston Kingstone Manners the Fourth does cocaine and finds a book that contains his life story. Moments in his past are described as, "The beaten black boy, the date-raped freshman, and the threatened homosexual," illustrating him to be a violent homophobe, misogynist, and racist character. The book finally informs him that his girlfriend, Lori, cheated on him with her friend Pete, who is interested in Shakespeare and drama. While he has cheated on Lori all semester, he is infuriated that she does the same and calls her to insult her body and sexuality, mocking her as his "virginal mistress" and a "slut." Winston continuously uses homophobic slurs to address Pete as he sees an image of him dressed as a harlequin, which ultimately leads him to his death.
