Kent State at Baruch College, May 6, 1970
New Online Exhibit at Newman Library, Baruch College, CUNY

In the aftermath of the Kent State shootings, Baruch College like many
campuses across the country, held a commemorative service.  This took place
on Wednesday, May 6, 1970.  The service was recorded and excerpts were
included in the college yearbook of the following year.  In addition to
this service, other activities took place over the course of several days
and photographs and written accounts were made of some of these.  This
material offers a valuable insight into the contemporary reaction of
ordinary students and faculty, in this case at Baruch, to the shootings at
Kent State.

In commemoration of the tragic events which took place at Kent State on May
4 1970 and the reaction of profound shock and disquiet that this event
produced on campuses both here at Baruch and elsewhere, the William and
Anita Newman Library together with the Baruch College Archives makes this
exhibit available.
