Description
Students standing in rows, some in cap and gown, gather for a cornerstone laying ceremony for the Carnegie Building in 1907. Holmes Hall is in the background. A photographer stands on a raised platform behind the crowd and several horse-drawn buggies wait along the road. Note the old location of the telescope on the corner of 5th and College.
