Description
A black and white image of the entire freshmen class of 1948-1949 posing on the steps of Harrison Rhodes Hall. The brick exterior and large windows of the building can be seen behind the group. The sign on the building reads, "Harrison Rhodes Memorial Library." The women are wearing dresses and the men are wearing suits. Everyone in the photo is also wearing a green cap. Green was associated with being new and "fresh," so the freshmen students wore them. On the back of the photograph is the stamp of the photographer's studio.
