Resolutions Regarding the Shootings at Kent State University and moratorium, 1970

The killing of four students at Kent State University on May 4, 1970 shocked colleges and universities across the United States, and the University of Toledo was no exception. Unlike some other institutions, however, the University remained relatively calm in the immediate aftermath of the shootings. A voluntary moratorium was announced--making classes optional for the next two days--and mass meetings were held daily for the next two weeks. There were also resolutions, such as these from the College of Law and Faculty Senate, respectively.
