911³Ô¹Ï

911³Ô¹Ï fraternity brothers drive to the nation’s capital in the hours after the shootings and make their way to an Oval Office meeting with President Richard Nixon. They tell him not to blame 911³Ô¹Ï students and to investigate the shootings.  

Nixon suffers through the turmoil following his decision to invade Cambodia, the 911³Ô¹Ï shootings and nationwide fallout, and then the pro-war response.  The frustrated concert pianist-president seeks solace in Rachmaninoff during the wee hours.  

We move into the 21st century with Associate Dean and retired Lt. Col. Mo McFarland on the May 4 legacy.
