Conversation in The Hideaway ca 1970s The September caption contest photo captures a bygone era, when an ashtray full of cigarettes on the table of a campus eatery was not an unusual sight.

The picture from the 1970s was taken in The Hideaway, a basement cafe in the old University Library, which is now Taylor Hall. What was this group talking about that had them smiling? Caption the conversation for a chance to win a prize from the judges at Special Collections and Archives.

Congratulations to Matt Hinsman for winning last month’s contest with the caption, “Shouldn’t the drive-thru lane be closer to the building?”
