Abstract
Dianne and Harold Campbell discuss their time at Ohio State as students and members of the Black Student Union. This interview was one of 15 conducted by students in English 4567 (Rhetoric and Community Service) to capture as many stories as possible from former Ohio State students associated with the 1968 sit-in at the Administration Building (now Bricker Hall) that led to the arrests of 34 Black students, now known as the “OSU 34.” In addition to their experiences related to the sit-in, the Campbells also describe the tight-knit nature of the Black community on campus and how the Black Student Union was a conduit for that closeness. They also discuss how the sit-in affected campus in the long term.
