Description:
In April 1968, students at a university revolted against the administration, occupying five buildings – including the president's office – in one of the era’s first major campus protests related to the Civil Rights Movement and the Vietnam War. The initial demonstration opposed the university's expansion into local communities and its perceived exploitation of those areas. After five days of student control, university leaders ordered the police to clear the buildings, resulting in a shocking and excessive display of force. This detailed account by a student who participated in the revolt inspired similar protests across the nation.
