Student Life

Socializing, Students, Susquehanna University.

Students take the time to socialize with each other while waiting in line in 1966. Note the cars in the parking lot, particularly the Volkswagen van, a symbol of the1960s counter-culture era. Peace and love, man!

Student Life

Telephones, Telephone booths, Students, Susquehanna University.

Catching up with friends and family is important for students living away from home. Before the advent of cell phones, students relied on land line phones. Unthinkable! This 1966 photograph shows a student staying comfortable while keeping in touch.

Student Life

Eating & drinking, Susquehanna University, Students

Mm mm good! Students share a modest meal of Dinty Moore Beef Stew and Maxwell House coffee in this 1966 image.
