Peaceable mood evident in campus protests at KU
Protests at Kansas University during 1971-72 were largely peaceful, with four main actions. Highlights include the East Asian Studies Center building seizure by women demanding affirmative action and a women’s studies department, and a Dole heckling episode amid wider antiwar activity. Police overtime costs reached about $22,000 as activities subsided.
