The drafting of college students was the reason for the counter culture and student unrest during the 1960's. ROTC buildings were routinely targeted and burned on college campuses thru-out the nation. ROTC programs were largely cancelled during the 1970's to avoid rioting. Only recently have ROTC programs been re-vitalized on College campuses in the United States. The Vietnam War had to be fought by draftees. The mobilizing of military reserves could be construed as a act of war, or an escalation of the cold war if they had been activated.

I don't really know all of them, but the biggest counter-culture (and most dominant) was the hippie movement. The hippie movement encouraged love and anti-war sentiments and was often related to drugs. Obviously, at the time, it went against mainstream ideas - therefore creating the counter-culture. But yeah, that's one of them.

The hippie movement started in the 1960s. This is was part of the larger counter-culture movement that had become popular at the time.
