Wikipedia Note: "Ohio" is a protest
song and counterculture anthem written and composed by Neil Young in reaction
to the Kent State shootings of May 4, 1970, and performed by Crosby, Stills, Nash &

especially the line "four dead in Ohio," repeated throughout the song.

I finished my online Art History Survey class with the students and now I miss them. It was great to be interacting and sharing what many museums have online for learning and experiencing art during this time. Some of my favorites have been: The Metropolitan Museum of New York and The Museum of Modern Art In New York City.
