She continued to select a unique piece of history for him every year, and soon the couple began collecting even more African American memorabilia at live and online auctions, garage sales, antique houses, and more.<\/p>\n<p>Believing the collection deserved a place where it could be permanently displayed and enjoyed by guests for many generations to come, Dr. L. Wayne Plumly, dean of the LCOBA, found a cozy, easily accessible spot on the second floor of Thaxton Hall, and with support from various groups across campus, turned it into a destination for anyone seeking inspiration, knowledge, a change of perspective, and food for conversation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfrican American history, and the preservation thereof, is near and dear to my heart,\u201d says Roy Copeland. \u201cMy wife and I decided that VSU was the best place to house the collection.
