Allison Davis, "College Girl" (1928)
You spent every week-end
In all-night liquor parties with your “man”;
You spent the money your mother
Feared to borrow on her home,
Not on books, but on dresses
To make you the belle of fraternity dances.
And you didn’t learn a damned thing
Except the unnecessary tricks of loving,
And ten animalistic dances.
You will teach the Negro students farther south
What you learned.
