her protesting efforts consisted
more of the dirty work involved
in organizing than the romantic
marches on Washington.
Duke was one of the first places
to have major rallies, Porter said.
It was a national fever that supp
lied the impetus to take risks, she
said.

Only 1 5 to 20 percent of high
school students were In
volved in the Vietnam War
protest, Kay said. The era has
been glorified to the point that
people believe every student was
involved, when really there were
only a few, he said.
Although hb protesting never
got him into serious trouble, Kay
said, he was called into the prin
cipal's office several times because
the high school administration
didn't like him organising for "the
movement" during school hours.
The nuclear freeze movement
today is an issue equally as im
portant as the '60s war protest,
Kay said, adding that he is
shocked that more people are
not aware of the nuclear freeze
movement and havent gotten involved.
Although he attended most of
the rallies on the UNL campus,
Dan Ladely, director of Sheldon
Film Theatre, said he wasnt in
volved in much protesting because
he was busy taking pictures for
the Daily Nebrsskan.
When he was at a rally to get
photos for the paper, Ladely said,
it usually was assumed he was
involved in the protest because
he had long hair.
Ladely said he began growing
his hair long because the
Beatles had long hair and
he thought it looked neat
Eventually, Ladely joined the
anti-Wfer effort One time during
a rally at the Nebraska Union,
Ladely said, the feeling arose in
the students that giving speeches
wasn't enough so they decided
to do something else.
A group of students marched
to the draft board, Which at that
time was in the Terminal Build
ing. But the draft board shut its
doors and would only talk to a
small delegation, Ladely said.
That night, the students had a
sit-in at the Military and Naval
Science Building, Ladely said. They
drew up a list of demands which
the administration would have to

meet before the students would
leave, Ladely said. That list in
cluded, among other things, that
the police wouldn't have guns
and the school would call a mora
torium. During the sit-in, tourists
stopped by to see them, a rock'n'
roll band played, and the admin
istration came to talk, Ladely
said.
Although the students were
promised earlier that they
wouldn't get arrested, the NU
Board of Regents still got an in
junction, Ladely said. Word came
that the police were on the edge
of campus waiting to break up
the event, he said.
People who were involved were
enlightened and learned a lot
from that time, Ladely said. Many
now are working within the es
tablishment and still are carrying
on with the same goals and ideals
they had in the '60s, he said.

sor of sociology and chairwoman
of Women's Studies said political
activities were a major part of
her education during her fresh
man year. Moore began college in
1039 at the University of Califor
nia in Santa Cruz.
Because of a student uprising,
the campus was completely shut
down in the spring of 1970, Moore
said. Alternative courses in sub
jects like political science, guer
rilla warfare and community
progress were offered with no
credit.
The feelings of the time were
fatalistic, angry and passive,
Moore said. One song that
expressed these feelings was,
"One, two, three, four, what are
we fighting for? Don't know, dont
give a damn, next stop is 'Viet
nam," she said.
There also was a festive air
because we were college students
and the comradery in the march
ing and singing was catching,
Moore said.
There was a tremendous gut-
level response to the draft and

the threat of war, especially after
student deferments were taken
away and white middle-class men
were threatened with the draft,
Moore said.
These were the men of our
lives that could be going to war,"
she said.
Moore said the protesting was
focused on the belief that there
could be a radical restructuring
of the political system.
There was an optimism ex
pressed in our confrontation,
even though we were con
fronting the draft and being a
part of the atrocities of war,"
Moore said.
Natalie Porter, assistant pro
fessor of psychology, said '60s
students spent minimal time on
school work and the rest of their
time on organizing.

Porter said there was an in
crease in political movement
- after the death of Martin
Luther King. In recognition of his
death, Duke held a two-week vigil
that began with 700 people and
grew to almost 1,000 people
camping out in a major quadran
gle of the University, she said.
It was a national conscious
ness that made middle-class kids
at an elite school care about such
issues, Porter said. "Five years
later or five years earlier, people
wouldn't care what a janitor
makes," she said.
Much of the reason for the pro
testing was self interest and the
anti-war effort was "not as altru
istic as we would like to think,"
Porter said. Today people dont
care about such issues because
there is a volunteer army, she
said.
Ivan Volgyes, professor of polit
ical science, said he was a leader
in the anti-war movement while
he was teaching at UNL.
During this time, he partici
pated in various activities, spoke
out to students, and, above all,
tried to make sure confrontations
between UNL students and the
state wouldn't take the shape of
the Kent State episode where a
student was lolled, Volgyes said.
"I'm still tainted by those who
remember because they never in
quired as to why I opposed the
war," Volgyes said. They just
lumped all professors together as
"pinko-commies." "If anyone
knows, I'm anything but that," he
said.
Involvement in protesting
comes in opposition with a per
son's desire to get ahead. Vol
gyes said. You cant make a living

tionary. THE ROTISSERIE
