In the chronology
- Vandals deface the Carolina Gay Association's cube notice for Gay Awareness Week The association's painted notice of its Gay Awareness Week on the campus cube was defaced with a slogan calling sodomy a felony and urging arrests. Lambda later said the cube listing was defaced during each of the early Gay Awareness Weeks. Lambda (Carolina Gay and Lesbian Association, UNC), March 1978, p. 1
- Fraternity men with bats confront students guarding the Gay Awareness Week cube During the association's second Gay Awareness Week, members slept beside the painted cube to protect their announcement, and a group of fraternity men carrying bats confronted two women and a man from the association there. Long student honor court hearings followed, and one student was found not guilty. Lambda (Carolina Gay and Lesbian Association, UNC), February 1985, p. 4
