Campus Participates in First-Annual Earth Day

On April 22, 1970, Wake Forest students, faculty, and staff join 20 million Americans in highlighting the inextricable links between environmental pollution and public health with a full day of teach-ins on campus. Part of that monumental day includes over 200 students gathering in Tribble Courtyard for a “Pollution Culprit Burial” of a combustion engine, cigarettes, and a sign representing poison.
