Hide Profile

Soon after the May 4, 1970, shootings on the Kent State University campus, University President Robert I. White requested that Charles F. Kegley serve as chairman of the University Commission to Implement Commitment to Non-Violence. The Commission membership totalled fifty-two and was composed of twenty students, twenty faculty members, ten administrators and staff personnel and two community representatives. It met a total of thirty times; the final meeting was held on Sept. 16, 1970. In addition, numerous task force meetings took place prior to each Commission meeting. There were nine task forces: ROTC, Peace Keeping, Student-Faculty Justice, Black Student Concerns, Political Action, Communications, Campus Security, Student Contact, and University Governance. All recommendations made by the Commission ultimately came from these task force meetings.
