The album was released on May 21, 1971 and was hailed by Rolling Stone magazine as a thematic approach to social and political issues. The song was a response to violence and riots in the United States related to the war in Vietnam, as well as race relations.

Not long after Russian forces invaded Ukraine, a contingent of Ohio Northern University students studying the history of the world wars traveled to northern France and Belgium.

Marking Milestones

Many of us have important milestones in our lives including graduations and birthdays that we enjoy celebrating. Graduations this month are wonderful milestones for so many! Weddings are another important milestone and 2022 is marking the biggest year for weddings since 1984. I find this fact interesting because two of my personal milestones are my marriage in 1984 and my daughter’s upcoming marriage in 2022. I think we will be celebrating with so many others. The prediction is that over 2.5 million nuptials will take place in 2022, which is a big boom for the wedding industry! This explains my Pinterest notifications.

2022 Klondikes revealed

Posted by Staff on Friday, May 13, 2022

With the last day of final exams on May 13 and commencement ceremonies on May 14, Ohio Northern University is wrapping up Spring semester 2022. Two seniors have been revealed as having worn the big white suit.

Being the Ohio Northern University mascot, Klondike, is such a closely guarded secret that not even the portrayer’s closest friends and family know the truth. A student Klondike is only allowed to reveal themselves upon graduating, so with Commencement right around the corner, we thought we’d help these students step out of the suit one final time and reveal themselves to some of their closest friends.
