Back to school… already? Yep it’s almost that time. Here’s a shot of Education Hall from the 1934 edition of
The Argus.This neo-gothic building went up in 1922 and is now known as Miller Hall. The photo has a nice dream-like quality, rather unlike the nightmare-like quality I recall from the first day of school. Click on the image for full resolution.

The gentleman seems to have just touched, tipped or even doffed his hat in acknowledgment of the ladies. A quaint anachronism captured for all time.
