The archives of Boston University Photo Services
are rich with images of the University's history
over the past half century -- but hundreds of the
photos are absolutely enigmatic. This shot from
1951 is one such mystery. Our guess is that the
domestic scene was staged to illustrate an article
on older students earning undergraduate degrees or
perhaps returning to school for a master's degree.
(The book on the floor next to the gramophone is
How to Organize and Operate a Small Business; could
it be a clue to the father's course of study?) If
any reader has an insight, please let us know.
