Description
A black and white image of a Student Government Association parade float moving in front of the campus at Bethune-Cookman University. The float is at the forefront of the image. The float is decorated in aluminum, and four African American women in white dresses sit on top, waving to the crowd. At the front of the float is a rocket-shaped decoration, which is connected with crepe paper to a sunburst-like decoration. The side of the float reads, "Student Government Assoc." A variety of trees can be seen lining both sides of the street, including very tall palm trees. On the right side of the image and the right side of the street can be seen a white building where spectators stand watching the parade. A steeple from a church can also be seen. Utility poles also stand out on the right side of the street. In the street, in the distance behind the float in the foreground, can be seen another car with a float. Spectators line the left side of the road, standing on the sidewalk, which is in front of the Bethune campus. At the left of the image, Cookman Hall is visible, which has a triangle-shaped roof. On the back of the image is written "Student Govt. Association Homecoming parade float 1965." The photographer of the image is unknown.
