Bio History Note

The date of 1920 on the building appears to have been superimposed on the image, giving the impression that the photo was of the Class of 1920.  However, this is not consistent with the following:

  • International student, Gwong Moy, graduated in 1920 and he is not included in the picture.
  • Also, the collars of the women have the same design and decoration as the female graduates in the 1922 Aurora.
  • In the 1922 Aurora there are 25 graduating women and in this picture there are 25 graduating women.
  • Professor A. R. Eikenberry appears to be in the center of the photograph in row one.
  • Other possible identifications giving indication that this is the Class of 1920 are:
    • Grace Hollinger
    • Cora Wise
    • Leah Senger
    • Georgia Miller
    • Marie Goshorn
    • Arthur Mote
