Women looking at model of proposed Law School Building ca. 1968

Black and white photograph. Two young black women are looking at a miniature diorama of a large displayed under a clear container. One of the women is wearing glasses and has a beehive style hair-do. She is pointing to the model and talking. The other woman is holding a notepad and pen in her right hand. In the background we can see a blackboard, wooden podium, and several light switches.

A clue that this photo does not date from 2024: note the woman holding pen and paper, not a cell phone.

According to my calculations, hot air arising from the law faculty will turn turbines that will generate ample juice for this building.

Holmes: My dear Watson, these fingerprints show conclusively that Professor Moriarty dined on Judge's Bar-B-Q before absconding to the wilds of Monroe County. The hot sauce, I should say.
Watson: You astonish me! But why?
Holmes: Alimentary, my dear fellow.
