WE CORNELLIANS
'We Cornellians': A continued look at student's illustrated Cornell history, ca. 1940
Ezra reader Jack Wilson '62 emailed about these "We Cornellian" illustrated panels by Steve Barker '41 being reprinted in the magazine:
"I loved the page about Cornell's founding in 1868, particularly the cartoon on Cornell being non-sectarian ... When I registered at Cornell in 1956, I recall going into the Armory, where there were lots of desks. I found the one for my name, and a lady behind the desk started to take down my particulars.
"At one point, she asked me my religion - a question that surprised me, as I had never been asked that before in my life. I responded: 'Atheist.' She glared at me disapprovingly, and wrote down 'Unitarian'!"
