Arthur Dubinsky, a street photographer also known for his work documenting migrant farm workers, recorded the early years of the College in his unique documentary style. These remarkable images show us what �鶹ԭ�� was from 1964, before the first students arrived in the fall, until 1985. He took most of his photos from 1964-1970 during President John Atherton’s tenure.
