Yes the ROTC building was burnt down because of protesters from Kent State University protesting war.
Racial segregation and inequality provoked the massive protest at Kent State University. This was concerning black students who felt mistreated. They wanted to advance their human rights, and therefore their own causes.

The shooting deaths of 4 students at Kent State University during a protest of the Vietnam War.
Start research with "Kent State University Shootings" (03 May 1970).
The only deaths that I'm aware of were the shooting at Kent State University. I think that was 3 or 4.
That was the time of what became known as the Kent State Massacre, in which 4 students were shot and killed by the national guard, during a student anti-war protest.
There had been many people and students protesting the war all that week, they went so far as to burn the soldier education building on campus. Since the protest had gotten so out of hand, the national guard was called. Then on May 4th, by the Kent State victory bell, the protest went on, the national guard had surrounded the protest and were throwing tear gas into the crowd. The crowd soon was filling the tear gas cans with cement and throwing them back at the guard, the guard somehow had a miscommunication (as they put it) and fired. The shots hit 13 students, wounding 9, and killing 4.
