Three Pacific University Students Dressed Up for Clean-Up Day

Description

A photograph of three Pacific University students dressed up as hobos or farmers for Clean-up Day in 1917. The students are posing on a wood plank walkway. The caption with the photograph identifies one of the students as Orlando Romig. Clean-Up Day was a long-held tradition at Pacific University. 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.
