Hand-colored postcard of the Skinner Memorial Chapel viewed from First St. at Carleton College. Handwritten text on back reads in part "Big day today - not much study. International Club meeting, fine Chamber Music recital here, then St. Olaf's Christmas music tonight... one of the girl's dorms caught fire tonight! So big excitement no?" Card is postmarked Dec 1943 and is from Hazel Ramsay, Assistant Professor of History at Carleton College 1943-44.
Colorchrome postcard of Skinner Memorial Chapel viewed from the southeast on the Carleton College campus. Handwritten text on back reads in part "Here is a view of the front of the chapel, where Sun. night vespers service is held. Also the big lecture (incl. all our discussion groups together this term) in our army course is held here, - it being one of the few places large enough. Lovely pink tinge as sunrise reflects on it as I go to 830 class. One compensation at least for such an early class." Card is postmarked Dec 1943 and is from Hazel Ramsay, Assistant Professor of History at Carleton College 1943-44.
