Audio Recording: The 1971 Chestnut Burr Record Insert
| Description |
Audio footage used on the record insert that was included in the 1971 Chestnut Burr yearbook. A compilation of audio footage by WKNT from May 1-4, 1970, produced by Bob Carpenter and Mark Heil. Includes on the scene footage from the May 1 and 2 disturbances in the City of Kent and on campus, including the ROTC building annex fire and excerpts from Governor James Rhodes' press statement in Kent on May 3, 1970. Also included is coverage, including shots fired, on May 4, 1970, and immediate reactions of students and faculty members. Some of the footage is repeated twice on this recording and is more extensive than what was finally included on the record insert as published. The 1971 Chestnut Burr record insert features excerpts from the Four Days in May documentary produced by Paul Brennan and engineered by Chris Hood. |
