Answer:

Colvin opposed the segregation law by declaring herself not guilty. The court ruled against her and put her on probation. She did receive a light sentence, but she could not escape the dread of the courtroom and the public opinion. She has now been branded as a trouble maker instead of a nice, quiet, student. She literally dropped out of college.

Step-by-step explanation:

She was very well versed in the law of what segregation and integration were all about.
