Campus History

Kent State gained notoriety in the 1970s as the site of the Kent State shootings. On May 4, 1970, an Ohio Army National Guard unit opened fire on a crowd of anti-Vietnam War protesters, leaving four dead and nine wounded. Protests against this act of violence erupted nationwide, including a student strike of 4 million students. The Center for Peaceful Change opened in 1971. Later renamed the Center for Applied Conflict Management, it developed one of the earliest conflict resolution bachelor’s degrees in the U.S.
