Today we remember.

On May 4, 1970, four Kent State students were killed and nine were wounded during an anti-war protest on this campus. We honor their memory—by continuing to reflect and bear witness.

Yesterday, members of our community gathered for the National Ride A Bike Day May 4 Riding Tour, visiting the Memorial and other historic sites across campus. We share these moments as a quiet reflection of remembrance and learning.
