KKK Buys 145 Acres for its University of America, Jan. 28, 1922

Ku Klux Klan University Buys Building Site

Asheville, Jan. 28—A tract of 145 acres has been purchased as a site for a million dollar administration building at the University of America, Atlanta, Ga., and the new building will be used by the university branches and the old Lanier College buildings for the preparatory school, Rev. Dr. Arthur Talmadge Abernathy said upon his return from Atlanta, where he attended a meeting of the trustees of the institution recently purchased by the Ku Klux Klan.

From The Charlotte News, Saturday, Jan. 28, 1922. I searched for more information on this University of America in Atlanta, Ga., and can't find any information about it. Perhaps it never opened? Perhaps it opened under another name?
