Wow. Thanks for the information. I was visiting the U of M campus nursing school library in Albuquerque every day, studying pregnancy and child development in the spring of 1970 as a pregnant 20-year-old. The library was free to the public. Students protested the war daily, and I had discussions with them and received their literature. We moved back to Rockford, Illinois, a few days before, where the National Guard bayonetted eleven students who were protesting the Kent State incident that happened the week before.

Thanks for preserving history and for taking part in protesting the Vietnam War and the Kent State students' right to protest nonviolently without shots fired at them by the National Guard.
