In the summer of 1964, when the Western College for Women opened its campus, now part of the Miami University campus, to civil rights activists, college students and volunteers from across the country trained there for the Mississippi Summer Project, also known as Freedom Summer. The first week's general training sessions were held in Leonard Theatre and covered racism in Mississippi, non-violence, and what to do if one was arrested. During the second week of orientation, Freedom School teachers trained in Leonard Theatre for schools organized in churches and community centers that provided African American youth instruction in civics, black history, and other topics. In Kumler Chapel during the first week of training, Reverend Ed King conducted a memorial service for Medgar Evers, and in the second week a vigil was held for the three missing men, Michael Schwerner, James Chaney, and Andrew Goodman, who were found murdered a month later.
