On each page a member of the Class of 1891 writes a message to their

are quite interesting as this from Gay Fanning, who is now a Ph. D. 
candidate at Cornell; "Another young woman & I have rooms in one of the 
little boarding houses that skirt the campus. ...We are the only lodgers 
in the house, but there are forty-eight table boarders, all men. One 
must get used to that at Cornell, as I discovered when I found myself 
the only woman in a class with ten men."
