Governor's Day, 1970

Governor's Day, 1970
Governor's Day was an annual event to honor the Governor of Nevada and the ROTC cadets. In 1970, the event had been scheduled to take place on May 5, just one day after the incident during a Kent State University protest that left four students dead and nine wounded. At UNR, students marched the length of the campus to the stadium in a peace rally. Here, they block the Governor's motorcade in front of the Agriculture and Jot Travis buildings.
