It notes that the students at the University of Richmond generally supported the Vietnam War and stayed "quiet" compared to other institutions like Berkeley, Swarthmore, and Columbia in the 60s. However, in the 70s, over 200 students opposed the war and were "impassionately discussing issues." Professors noted that it never got out of hand; however, that only about 10-15% percent of students participated, and that Westhampton students were seldom involved. They also noted that no major political groups gained popularity at Richmond, and after the Kent State shootings, the protests ceased.

The writer calls the Vietnam War “an unjust war, a war which was lied about, which was fought with no intention of winning and which was in every way a politician’s war…” and elaborates that, as well as forgive those who refused to take part, Americans should also be proud and thank returning veterans, paying particular note to those who were in North Vietnamese POW camps. The writer claims that the suggestion of the American Legion, to consider each case “on its own merits,” is the correct choice when dealing with those who “ran to escape induction” and “hurt no one.” The article ends by claiming the choice is in Richard Nixon’s hand, and it’s his job to admit he was wrong in carrying out the war.

Richmond College senior and student activist Jim Winders claimed this was because the Vietnam War “ceased to be a powerful issue,” as well as because the student activists realized after the Kent State Shootings that change would be slow. Richmond College senior Marshall Cook also claimed students were “waiting for the new President.” Another Richmond College student, sophomore Elwood Elliot, argued that students were apathetic that year, but demonstrations in Richmond could occur “if something would happen such as Cambodia last year.” Subject The topic of the resource College students College students--Attitudes Kent State Shootings, Kent, Ohio, 1970 Politics and government Protests Student activism Student movements Vietnam War, 1961-1975 Language A language of the resource English Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context CollegianLVIII.16.2-19710205.png Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Hockman, Jeb.

Description An account of the resource After a 1970 march on President George Modlin’s house related to the Vietnam War, Richmond College freshmen Jonathan Lewis and Richard Newman requested to meet with Dr. Modlin “to discuss the problems of the University” only to be admonished by the president after arriving. During the meeting, Modlin called Lewis’s parents to claim that Lewis’s role in the march was “detrimental to the rights of all students” and, further, that their son was “trying to bring the strike movement onto the campus.” Lewis denied these claims. Modlin also claimed “that he might take ‘radical means’ to dissociate the students from the University. The president told the Collegian that the march was illegal and the two freshmen’s roles as leaders in the march “placed them in 'difficulty;’ they would be placed in "serious difficulty" if they participated in any more “disruption.” Lewis, however, was inspired by the event to “speak out strongly on University policies that are oppressing students.” Subject The topic of the resource College students Modlin, George Matthews, 1903-1998 Protests School discipline Student activism Student movements Vietnam War, 1961-1975 Language A language of the resource English Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context CollegianLVII.29.1-19700515.png Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived "Students Questioned on Sunday March."

However, there was still some violence, including tear-gassing. Nevertheless, he makes a point that most of the participants just wanted peace. These participants were a diverse group of "hippies, yippies, blacks, young, old, bearded and beardless." Feldman ends his article by claiming, “What we asked for in Washington was peace.

Starting as a Pre-Med student, he eventually followed his true calling and majored in Mathematics.  During his time at UR, he was on the baseball team and coached by Chuck Boone.  Other activities included intramural basketball and being a member of SOBA – the Student Organization for Black Awareness.  He graduated in 1977 with a Bachelor of Arts.  <img src="https://memory.richmond.edu/files/misc/HarrisRayford_1974-01.JPG" alt="" /> After graduating, there was a brief four-year teaching career with Richmond Public Schools where Rayford taught Mathematics at Henderson Middle School, John Marshall and Maggie Walker High Schools, and the Marshall-Walker (combined) High School.  During that time he also coached Girls’ Basketball, Softball, and Baseball. In 1981, Rayford began a 33-year career with the City of Richmond.  He began as a Programmer Trainee and advanced to Lead Programmer.  He ended the Information Technology part of his tenure as a Lead Systems Developer having been involved with most of the City’s automated systems.  The other half of his City Career was with the Department of Budget and Strategic Planning where he began as a Senior Budget & Management Analyst.  Over the years, he was promoted to Deputy Director and ultimately appointed by Mayor L. Douglas Wilder as the Director of Budget and Strategic Planning.  After serving under a second Mayor, Dwight C. Jones, Rayford retired from the City in December of 2013. After retirement, Rayford served as the CFO for a small Non Profit Agency, Quin Rivers Inc. – A Community Action Agency and “re-retired” June 30, 2019.
