Bob Mackowsky joined the University of Maryland Students for a Democratic Society in 1967.

Bob was soft-spoken and thoughtful during his student radical days at UM. His older sister Nancy was also a member of SDS at the time. Bob died in San Francisco in 1970.

• At the time he died, I was stunned by the news. I was never able to learn how or why he died. I really liked Bob and wonder to this day what happened out there on the West Coast. If anyone can shed some light, I’d appreciate it. — Anonymous
