YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio — Students gathered at  Hiram college in northeast Ohio Tuesday, for the "recapitation" of a prominent statue, reported ONN's affiliate WKBN-TV in Youngstown.

The 100-year-old statue of America's 20th President, James Garfield, was beheaded last May. 

The head was anonymously returned three months later.

Garfield actually attended Hiram, taught classes there and finally served as the school's president.

He was assassinated after only three months in the White House.
