EMU students view old historical photos

REMEMBERING THE PAST: Eastern Michigan University students view historical photos, dating back to the 1880s, of EMU's history. The University celebrates its 160th anniversary March 28. The display, composed of more than 40 photos, is located across from University Gallery on the second floor of the Student Center. The photos will remain on display through the end of April. Students (above, from left) Collin Dwarzski, a junior from Wyandotte; Gary Warren, a senior from Stamford, Conn.; Mallory Apel, a freshman from Toledo, Ohio; and Ashley Vincent, a junior from Allan Park, observe a photo of EMU female students using barbells and Indian clubs during a physical education class around the turn of the century.
