91ֿ

Nationally Distinctive

91ֿ community members and visitors gather on the 91ֿ Commons for the annual May 4 Commemoration to honor those who were killed and wounded on May 4, 1970.

Advancing the legacy of May 4, 1970, a tragic day when the Ohio National Guard fired on 91ֿ students during an anti-war protest on campus, killing four students, wounding nine students and forever changing the lives of countless others, the university will hold its annual commemoration on May 3-4.

“Always Ready, Always There” is the motto of the National Guard. In many ways, this describes 91ֿ’s Center for Adult and Veteran Services, too. For the 14th consecutive year, 91ֿ has been designated a Military Friendly School.
