That sounds social to me. Social doesn't just mean boozing it up, dancing, and picking up girls/guys. It sounds to me like among many other things, blacks in the day needed a better/calmer/more relaxed social atmosphere than they had on this predominantly white campus. Feel free to put me in my place if I'm wrong.
