D8886-5

Freshman Week, beginning September 18, 1939, at the College of Puget Sound. Five students gather around an old bell, hanging from a wooden frame, to go over school notes. The bell is the old fog warning bell from the Browns Point Lighthouse. Posed around the bell, left to right, are Bill Taylor, Virginia Judd, Bob Almvig, Anne Louise Greiwe and Richard Cummings. Freshman Week features a whirlwind of social and academic activities for incoming Freshmen to introduce them to campus ways. Included are a mixer, sorority teas, a "Sports Spree" and assemblies on study habits and campus organizations. (T. Times 9/20/1939, pg. 11; 9/18/1939, pg. 5 & 7)
