"I knew if he was 20 years younger
he'd have been out there with us."
Activism
Monroe Dodd wrote editors for the University Daily Kansas during Spring 1970 and is now the managing editor of the Kansas City Times.
Dodd's editorial style was easy on rhetoric, heavy on objectivity. He remains wary of single-issue causes.
"I feel stronger than I did then that the path of moderation is the best one," Dodd said. "I've watched politics for the last 20 years and the interest groups on both ends keep us going. They plly us a steady course."
He said the volatility of the time did not faze him as he drove through Lawrence during curfew to get a story.
"I felt physically immortal," Dodd said. "I'd say, 'I think there might be some danger, but it won't get me.' I was not as worried then as I am now that I'm 40.
"I look back fondly because it was a rambunctious time. I miss the sense of exhilaration."
Richard Louv was editor of the 1970 Jayhawker Yearbook. Today he is a columnist for the San Diego Union, and he has written two books.
Louv also recalls his college days with affection.
"It was a great year to be in school," he said. "One felt fully alive. There was a feeling things mattered. The decisions you made during the school year — some could be life or death."
Louv said the 1970 Jayhawker was largely anti-war, which reflected his views.
"I'm against violence, period, if it was Lyndon Johnson or Jerry Rubin." he said. "That's mainly what I wrote about."
Louv has gained a compassion for his parents, he said, now that he has two children. The 1960s, Louv said, were a difficult time for parents.
"I can't imagine having kids in the '60s," he said. "It was a terrible time to be a parent. But it was a great time to be a kid."
Tom Ashton was a member of an anti-war group called the New Mobilization Committee. Today he is a legal services lawyer specializing in public entitlements law in Bellingham, Wash.
Ashton communicated strong feelings as he described why he became active in the anti-war movement.
"I think it was the appalling sense of loss of human life, the sense that what we were doing made no sense for the national interest or for the people of Southeast Asia," he said. "The government was completely out of touch with any real sense of purpose.
"History has borne out that we did not have any kind of plan or reason to be there."
Jim Stratford was one of hundreds of students who helped fight the Union fire. He lives in his hometown of Pratt as director of the liberal arts and sciences department at Pratt Community College.
Stratford said he carried pictures out of the Union and moved hoses for firemen the night of the fire. He said he didn't think twice about his efforts.
"I was just interested in helping wherever I could," Stratford said. "When you're that young you don't
get scared, so I pitched in and helped.
it's just one of those things you do."
John Wulf was a freshman from Morton Grove, Ill., and served as sophomore class president in 1970-71. He is now employed by the U.S. Postal Service in Lawrence.
One of Wulf's memories of his freshman year was attending the Abbie Hoffman speech at Allen Field House. Hoffman had been recently tried for his participation in the riots over the attack on the Convention in Chicago. Although he was against the war, Wulf said, Hoffman's speech disturbed him.
"What I witnessed that night, with all the raising of arms and 'Right Ons' every few seconds reminded me a little bit too much of Hitler's Germany," he said. "I imagine virtually everyone who was there was against the war and as wisely on the side of some of the principles espoused by Hoffman, but it was just the way everyone followed and everyone was looking around to make sure everyone else was following that I just saw a little bit too much peer pressure."
Reynolds Shultz was a state senator, R-Lawrence, who was displeased with the goings on at KU throughout the 1969-70 school year. He later served a term as lieutenant governor and is now a director at large for the Farm and Home Administration.
Shultz was an antagonist of Chalmers, but considered him a worthy adversary.
"I did not like his stance," he said. "I thought he was too liberal. He should have taken a stronger stance with the disdissents.
