The 40th commemoration of the May 4, 1970, shootings on the campus of Kent State University has brought with it numerous events on and around campus.

The May 4 remembrance day observation will begin at the Commons at noon Tuesday (May 4). Speakers include: Gerald Casale of DEVO; former Black Panther Bobby Seale; photographer John Filo; May 4 eyewitness Mary Vecchio; and Florence Schroeder, mother of William Schroeder, one of the students fatally shot on May 4, 1970.

Laurel Krause, sister of Allison Krause, who was among the four killed in 1970, will set up the Kent State Truth Tribunal at 110 S. Water St. through Tuesday. The tribunal will record personal narratives of witnesses to the events of May 4, 1970.

"We're really calling for all people that were the original participants of the 1970 Kent State shootings ... we're going to ask them to come forward and share their truth," Laurel Krause said.
