Acknowledgements

This project began as assignments for stories, photographs and video in three classes taught by Profs. Jacqueline Marino and David Foster. We are grateful to Lori Boes, assistant director of the May 4 Visitors Center, for inviting us to use the center’s classroom for our collaboration.

Many other people also supported the site’s creation, including Cara Gilgenbach, Jeff Fruit, the May 4th Task Force, Alan Canfora, Stephanie Danes Smith, Steven Kubitza and every member of the Kent State community we spoke to, or quoted, who helped us better understand the events of May 4, 1970.
