Sandra Lee Scheuer

According to the account of her boyfriend Bruce Burkland, Scheuer "was walking with one of her speech and hearing therapy students across the green.

"[2] Three other unarmed students were also killed in the shootings: Allison Krause, Jeffrey Miller, and William Knox Schroeder.

The shootings led to protests and a national student strike, causing hundreds of campuses to close because of both violent and non-violent demonstrations.

[5] Just after Scheuer's death, the songwriter Harvey Andrews composed a song titled "Hey Sandy",[6] whose lyrics are addressed to her: Did you see them turn, did you feel the burn Of the bullets as they flew?

In the song "Ohio", which was written immediately after the shootings, folk rocker Neil Young made a reference to Scheuer in the chorus: What if you knew her, And found her dead on the ground?
