After considerable reflection and consultation, Georgia Tech plans for this historic site to become a special place of contemplation as a green space often frequented by large numbers of students.  We hope that more can be learned through an interactive Web site and by designing an area around the historical marker to encourage visitors to stop and reflect on the struggle for civil rights and the importance of equality in American\nsociety.\u0022\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"Georgia Tech releases statement about Pickrick Restaurant","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Tech releases statement about Pickrick Restaurant"}],"uid":"27304","created_gmt":"2009-02-05 01:00:00","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:01:29","author":"Matthew Nagel","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2009-02-05T00:00:00-05:00","iso_date":"2009-02-05T00:00:00-05:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"1317","name":"News Briefs"}],"categories":[{"id":"129","name":"Institute and Campus"},{"id":"132","name":"Institute Leadership"}],"keywords":[{"id":"1374","name":"Pickrick"},{"id":"1375","name":"Restaurant"},{"id":"170783","name":"Statement"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EGeorgia Tech Media Relations\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ELaura Diamond\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:laura.diamond@comm.gatech.edu\u0022\u003Elaura.diamond@comm.gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E404-894-6016\u003Cbr \/\u003EJason Maderer\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:maderer@gatech.edu\u0022\u003Emaderer@gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E404-660-2926\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
