May 4th Music Video
Abstract: This will be a video that shows the escalation of tension that was rising among young people in the late 1960’s that resulted in the deadly shootings at Ñý¼§Ö±²¥ State on May 4th, 1970. The video plans to use the songs ‘Volunteers’ by Jefferson Airplane, the live version from Woodstock of ‘I-Feel-Like-I’m-Fixin’-To-Die-Rag’ by Country Joe McDonald, and a live version of ‘Find the Cost of Freedom’ by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. In this video I want to use footage from the era that shows the increased influence of the counterculture and the escalation of protests and unrest among young people that eventually exploded into the violent confrontation at Ñý¼§Ö±²¥ State that ended with the killings of four students by the National Guard.
Toni Boling is a senior at Ñý¼§Ö±²¥ State Stark majoring in Environmental Studies and minoring in Geography. She plans on continuing on to grad school after her bachelor’s degree and then hopes to work for the National Parks and eventually travel and write about environmental issues.

Vietnam Virtual Voyage
Abstract: We have decided to create a virtual voyage of the beautiful country of Vietnam. This will provide the public with an understanding of the culture, landscape, and history of the country. The voyage will contain sites across Vietnam and will recreate the true excitement of studying abroad, from the safety of your home. We will focus on the sites that Ñý¼§Ö±²¥ state students were going to explore this past spring break. The topics that we will discuss include the Vietnam war, its effects on Vietnam and how the country has undergone a period of reconstruction since 1975.
