 s at Princeton\, a college in the northern U.S. state of New Jersey\, rare
 ly constituted a majority of students\, they were often a large plurality 
 of the students in the period before the U.S. Civil War. Because of Prince
 ton’s historic role in educating southerners\, it has sometimes been refer
 red to as the most southern of the Ivy League schools. So many students fr
 om the U.S. South enrolled at Princeton during the first several decades o
 f the college that one observer wrote that one might take Princeton for a 
 “Southern college slipped from its geographical moorings.”\n\nThis talk ch
 allenges the idea of “the North” as a place of black freedom in the antebe
 llum years by discussing the extent to which and whether Princeton behaved
  like a southern institution in its speech and actions concerning slavery 
 and emancipation.\n\nLa conférencière\n\n[En anglais seulement] Lolita Buc
 kner Inniss is a Professor of Law and a Robert G. Storey Distinguished Fac
 ulty Fellow at Southern Methodist University Dedman School of Law in Dalla
