  2. January Caption Contest

All are encouraged to enter captions to a photo in the Archives. The contest winner (as chosen by those sagacious heads at Caption Contest Central) will receive a Fabulous Prize.

Once upon a time to whisper the phrase "art student" was to suggest license and immorality. Their hijinks were legendary. This month's Caption Contest photo, the first for 2026, shows a few Herron students in 1947 in quirky attitudes. What's going on? You decide! Caption this vintage photo and you may win a Fabulous Prize!

 

Black and white photograph. Four young white men are striking a playful, theatrical pose on a sidewalk in front of a large brick building. On the far left, a man with glasses and a light jacket smiles while linking arms with the group. Next to him, a man in a dark blazer and trousers leans in toward the center. The third man, wearing glasses, a light button-up jacket, and bright white pants, poses with his knees slightly flexed and right foot pointing left. On the far right, the fourth man has a cigar in his mouth and is curving his left arm dramatically over his head while slightly leaning towards the center. In the background, two women stand on the building's porch, watching the scene.
