A LOOK BACK TO SEE FORWARD
On Monday, May 4, 1970, the Ohio National
Guard fired on unarmed college student
protestors on the Kent State University
campus. Firing 67 rounds over a period
of just 13 seconds, the guardsmen killed
four students and wounded nine others.
Some of the students who were shot
had been protesting the Cambodian
Campaign, which President Richard Nixon
announced during a television address
on April 30, while others were merely
onlookers. There was a significant national
response to the shootings: hundreds of
universities, colleges, and high schools
closed throughout the United States,
and the event further affected public
opinion over the role of the United States
in the Vietnam War. That same week,
Lycoming College students participated
in a peaceful demonstration of about 413
people in Williamsport. The photo at right
captures the somber feeling of the time.
Most carry peace signs or wear armbands,
and others carry placards with the names
of the four students killed at Kent State.
