28 June

As the Campus Photographs project gets larger and larger, there are more and more subjects to account for, besides buildings alone. I felt the need to document the subjects that I am using thus far, so I did - this list includes places and events. Then I started adding people, and I am still in this process because I have to keep the people on the master list and in a separate list of their own. The Personal Name list will eventually document all identifiable people in the campus photographs collection, along with any information I have of them and the WP #'s that they appear in. This way, we'll be able to focus on less well-identified subjects and do targeted research on those photos in particular.

In addition to this project, I continued working down the list, getting to almost WP 1400. I also did some research in the attempt to discover what "Chapel March/Spectacle Day" was, but, though I found the photo for it in the 1920 Wallulah, there was little information or even reference to the photo as "Chapel March/Spectacle Day."
