O'Bryant Muralles

The Honors College continues to host Common Experience events as it did last week when some Texas State alumni returned to discuss their experience protesting the Vietnam War. Bobcat Update's O'Bryant Muralles has more.

The fighting stallions statue on the quad garners much activity almost everyday. Fifty years ago the stallions provided the backdrop for ten students who were suspended for protesting the war in Vietnam. They had decided that expressing their opposition to the war was more important than staying in school.

Texas State Alumnus E.R. Bills has written a book about the San Marcos Ten. He says he first heard about the protest when he was an undergrad.

When Bills read from his book, Sally Ann Satagaji was taken back to that moment.
