Kent State Test Questions
with Answers
http://dept.kent.edu/sociology/lewis/lewihen.htm - Answer-Sunday, May 3rd was a day
filled with contrasts. Nearly 1000 Ohio National Guardsmen occupied the campus,
making it appear like a military war zone. The day was warm and sunny, however, and
students frequently talked amicably with Guardsmen

http://dept.kent.edu/sociology/lewis/lewihen.htm - Answer-Ohio Governor James
Rhodes flew to Kent on Sunday morning, and his mood was anything but calm. At a
press conference, he issued a provocative statement calling campus protestors the
worst type of people in America and stating that every force of law would be used to
deal with them.

http://dept.kent.edu/sociology/lewis/lewihen.htm - Answer-the widespread assumption
among both Guard and University officials was that a state of martial law was being
declared in which control of the campus resided with the Guard rather than University
leaders and all rallies were banned. Further confrontations between protestors and
guardsmen occurred Sunday evening, and once again rocks, tear gas, and arrests
characterized a tense campus.

http://dept.kent.edu/sociology/lewis/lewihen.htm - Answer-Conflicting evidence exists
regarding who was responsible for the decision to ban the noon rally of May 4th.

http://dept.kent.edu/sociology/lewis/lewihen.htm - Answer-The decision to ban the rally
can most accurately be traced to Governor Rhodes' statements on Sunday, May 3 when
he stated that he would be seeking a state of emergency declaration from the courts.
Although he never did this, all officials -- Guard, University, Kent -- assumed that the
Guard was now in charge of the campus and that all rallies were illegal. Thus, University
leaders printed and distributed on Monday morning 12,000 leaflets indicating that all
rallies, including the May 4th rally scheduled for noon, were prohibited as long as the
Guard was in control of the campus

http://dept.kent.edu/sociology/lewis/lewihen.htm - Answer-WHAT EVENTS LED
DIRECTLY TO THE SHOOTINGS?
-Shortly before noon, General Canterbury made the decision to order the demonstrators
to disperse.
-A Kent State police officer standing by the Guard made an announcement using a
bullhorn

, -When this had no effect, the officer was placed in a jeep along with several Guardsmen
and driven across the Commons to tell the protestors that the rally was banned and that
they must disperse.

http://dept.kent.edu/sociology/lewis/lewihen.htm - Answer--This was met with angry
shouting and rocks, and the jeep retreated.
-Canterbury then ordered his men to load and lock their weapons, tear gas canisters
were fired into the crowd around the Victory Bell, and the Guard began to march across
the Commons to disperse the rally.

http://dept.kent.edu/sociology/lewis/lewihen.htm - Answer--The protestors moved up a
steep hill, known as Blanket Hill, and then down the other side of the hill onto the
Prentice Hall parking lot as well as an adjoining practice football field.

http://dept.kent.edu/sociology/lewis/lewihen.htm - Answer--Most of the Guardsmen
followed the students directly and soon found themselves somewhat trapped on the
practice football field because it was surrounded by a fence. Yelling and rock throwing
reached a peak as the Guard remained on the field for about ten minutes.

http://dept.kent.edu/sociology/lewis/lewihen.htm - Answer-On May 4, l970 members of
the Ohio National Guard fired into a crowd of Kent State University demonstrators,
killing four and wounding nine Kent State students.

http://dept.kent.edu/sociology/lewis/lewihen.htm - Answer-The event triggered a
nationwide student strike that forced hundreds of colleges and universities to close.

http://dept.kent.edu/sociology/lewis/lewihen.htm - Answer-the shootings have certainly
come to symbolize the deep political and social divisions that so sharply divided the
country during the Vietnam War era

http://dept.kent.edu/sociology/lewis/lewihen.htm - Answer-The decision to bring the
Ohio National Guard onto the Kent State University campus was directly related to
decisions regarding American involvement in the Vietnam War. Richard Nixon was
elected president of the United States in 1968 based in part on his promise to bring an
end to the war in Vietnam.

http://dept.kent.edu/sociology/lewis/lewihen.htm - Answer-During the first year of
Nixon's presidency, America's involvement in the war appeared to be winding down. In
late April of 1970, however, the United States invaded Cambodia and widened the
Vietnam War. This decision was announced on national television and radio on April 30,
l970 by President Nixon, who stated that the invasion of Cambodia was designed to
attack the headquarters of the Viet Cong, which had been using Cambodian territory as
a sanctuary.
