This photo is of the sidewalk along Nassau Street in front of Princeton University’s FitzRandolph Gateway. After Commencement in 1970, Princeton University opened gates to the town of Princeton, allowing local residents to come onto the campus grounds. But administrators said that the decision had sparked a crime wave, so Princeton’s president, Robert Goheen, instituted a curfew that prohibited townspeople from trespassing on Cannon Green after dark on August 13, 1970. This brought immediate protest.
