It was where the Students for a Democratic Society was established.

Explanation

The University of Michigan was important to the antiwar movement because Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) was founded there in 1960. SDS became a major student organization opposing the Vietnam War. The Gulf of Tonkin Resolution was passed by Congress, not at the university, and Catch-22 was written by Joseph Heller.
