Scope and content
A record 228 students graduated in the class of 1950 at Pacific Lutheran College. They pose on the steps of Old Main. Dr. Harry K Newburn, president of the University of Oregon, spoke on the subject of "The Uncommon Man". That could describe the person with a college diploma in 1950. Only slightly over 5 per cent of the nation's population 25 years of age and over had college degrees. Names were listed in the Tacoma News Tribune, 5/25/1950, p. 3. (TNT, 5/30/1950, p.1)
