The student movement of the 1960s rested on the notion of change. Students wanted to end the "consensus culture" that formed following WWII, eliminate racial discrimination and free themselves from the perceived authoritarian rule of the establishment. As a result, students became a part of a newer, greater entity known as the "New Left." Students for a Democratic Society was the most recognized aspect of the New Left. Protests against the war continued throughout the rest of the decade. Draft card burnings continued, defiance to induction ran rampant and large-scale protests grew, including the protests at the Chicago Democratic National Convention in 1968. The culmination of student activism against the war came in May 1970 when thousands rallied to protest the Kent State shootings, which were haphazard killings of students protesting aspects of the Vietnam War by members of the Ohio National Guard on the Kent State University campus.
