Photo Gallery: School is back in session

Freshman move-in day, UW-Green BaySeptember 2 marked the beginning of a new school year at UW-Green Bay. The class of 2014 made their start a few days earlier with freshman move-in day. More than 100 volunteers came out to help direct and move in the anxious students.

Take a look at the photo gallery or watch the video and see why this day is always a memorable one.

What do students do in their off hours? Look in the photo gallery.

In this photo, five figures dressed in prairie costume stand in tall grass, posed before a weathered shed. The men are wearing denim bib overalls, one rests his hand on a 12-string acoustic guitar and another other, the barrel of a rifle. The women wear calico print dresses with ruffled aprons, one with a prairie bonnet on. We believe this photo to be from the 1970’s. Can you provide any more information? Please share your memories as they relate to this photo.

Pinball Player

This is perhaps one of the more unusual photos in our collection. A student plays pinball with a robot? There’s a foosball table and maybe some other arcade games in the background. If you can share any information about where and when this photo was taken or some explanation of the robot, we’d certainly love to hear about it.
