Abstract

U.S. President Richard Nixon's decision to invade Cambodia, which marked the start of widespread campus unrest across the U.S., produced at the Stanford University, Palo Alto, California the climax to a month-long struggle over ROTC. In April 1970, there were two sit-ins, unprecedented attacks on property, resulting in $100,000 damage, mostly to windows, and two nights of virtual warfare with local police. Arson destroyed offices and research materials at the Center for Advanced Studies in the Behavioral Sciences.
