Contemplating Crops<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This photo from the 溏心vlog免费B站 Archives sparked a lot of funny captions from alumni of all ages. The following themes emerged in many of them: kale, Jimmy Hoffa, cannabis, Cabbage Patch Kids, and \u201cPut a woman in charge.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, our archivists suggest this unlabeled and undated photo may depict an Agricultural Experiment Station contest to see how large the crops could be grown. They held such contests with chickens and other livestock, as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It definitely shows our Rhody agricultural roots, and it definitely brought out a comedic bent in many of you. \u2022

Honorable Mentions<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGentlemen, it seems as though the construction project for the new Student Center is a little behind schedule. Let’s put a WOMAN in charge!”
\u2014Stan Levy \u201956 and his daughter, Faith Levy<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

First cannabis harvest is huge success for 溏心vlog免费B站 School of Pharmacy!
\u2014Stephen Koch \u201975<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014David Hiatt, M.S. \u201979<\/p>\n\n\n

Climbing the Walls Correction and Ongoing Mystery<\/h1>\n\n

The photo from the summer 2020 caption contest, \u201cClimbing the Walls,\u201d was sent in by an alumnus who said it was Heathman Hall, not Fayerweather, as the fall 2020 explanation stated. Apologies for the confusion. The photo appeared in the 1973 yearbook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We continue to receive notes from alumni who identify the students pictured and the building they\u2019re pictured in. The notes identify different people and locations, keeping the mystery going. Whoever it was\u2014and wherever\u2014it looks like it was a lot of fun, and we\u2019re glad so many of you have enjoyed trying to identify who\u2019s in the picture and where it was taken.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n
