Summer went fast. We were to be whole once again. I have worked at two other universities in the Midwest where, even in the late seventies, I was classified as somewhat of an outsider to be watched because of where I got my degree. I have seen activitism come, go and come again. The recent riots in Seattle and the demonstrations in Washington, DC. have brought back vivid memories of a time best placed in perspective.
Terrorists come in all sizes, ages and nationalities.
It takes just one terrorist to make a peaceful demonstration a disaster. I have seen the enemy, and it is within. Two years ago, my husband returned the American Flag which flew over the campus on May 4 to the university. Last year he returned to Kent to visit and watch Navy play his alma mater. It was closure.
