This circa 1891 dorm room looks quite a bit more ornate than
those of today — notice the elaborate dresser, tapestries, carpet,
and curtains. The photographs’s lounging students, however, despite
their formal dress, prove that the art of dorm-room “hanging out”
hasn’t changed. This photo, taken by a student with a Kodak box camera,
is part of the university archives’ Student Photographers Series.
