Parkland survivor David Hogg brought his message of activism and voter participation to ��ҹ�糡 with his talk March 14 in the Kent Student Center Kiva.

The ��ҹ�糡 Community came together for the 53rd Commemoration of May 4, 1970. 

Serving as the Chair of the May 4 Task Force has been something communication studies major Avery Hall, ’23, describes as one of the most impactful and rewarding experiences she’s had at ��ҹ�糡. “May 4, 1970, is a living legacy at ��ҹ�糡 with relevant implications for students today. Continuing the legacy of May 4th quickly became of great importance to me,” she said.

A portion of ��ҹ�糡’s Kent Campus has taken its place alongside the nation’s most significant historic locations, joining such sites as the Grand Canyon National Park, Pearl Harbor and the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama.

��ҹ�糡 holds its 47th annual commemoration of May 4, 1970, with events taking place May 3 and 4. The annual commemoration, hosted by the May 4 Task Force, provides an opportunity for the university community to gather and remember those who were lost and injured during the tragedy and also reflect on what May 4 means today.
