May 10, 2021 - Today is the anniversary of the only official riot in state history that called on the National Guard to disperse the crowd.
It started innocently. In April â69, NDSU student body president, Chuck Stroup, couldnât afford to go to Florida with his sister for spring break. So he came up with a cheap alternative and took it to NDSUâs school paper, the Spectrum. He was planning a gathering, near his hometown of Hazen, to be held the following month. He called it âZip to Zapâ and took out a classified ad.
A responsive front-page article about the event set things in motion. It praised the beauty of the Knife River and stated that the people of Zap were welcoming the idea. The article also predicted that people from all over the Midwest would come to the âLauderdale of the North.â UND picked up on the idea, and within weeks, Zip to Zap was being promoted nationwide as a âGrand Festival of Light and Love.â
