I was immature at 18-19 and easily swayed by arguments on many sides of many issues. But I do remember, 60 years later, how implacable and obstinate the pro-war advocates were.

We had at least two students killed by National Guard during a protest. Mt. Oread (the KU campus) was/is a blue island in a sea of red, still.
