Title

Group of Pacific University Students Dressed Up for Clean-Up Day on the Steps of Marsh Hall

Description

A photograph of Pacific University students posing on the steps of Marsh Hall in 1917. They are dressed up for Clean-Up Day. Clean-Up Day was a long-held tradition at Pacific University. The caption with the photograph identifies one of the students as Alice Bollinger. One day a year in late fall, students and staff would gather at Marsh Hall before repairing and beautifying the campus. Students would often dress as hobos, farmers or cross-dress. This picture appears in an album that was compiled by Greta McIntyre Sheeley, a 1920 Pacific University graduate.
