Can you date the following to help out a DB alumnus and historian? (1) Martin Luther King spoke on campus (was it April 27, 1965?); (2) a campus teach-in on Vietnam at which the late Prof. Hans Meyerhoff was one of the featured speakers; (3) a massive candle-light vigil against the war. Both (2) and (3) would have occurred between 1965 and 1968, but not during the 1966-1967 school year.

I can confirm the MLK date of April 27, 1965. I worked at the UCLA History Project, and that was the date of the speech (I even got to handle MLK's thank you letter to Chuck Young).
