    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[After the name change from State Teacher’s College to Madison College in 1938, the school pennants reflected the new branding in bold colors. Continuing the tradition of displaying pennants in dorm rooms, pennants remained a consistent adornment for students during this time. ]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Pennants were common decorations in student dorm rooms. They were often made of wool felt and demonstrated support for a particular school or sport. Many resident students hung them on the walls, both for their own and other schools like Virginia Military Institute a bit further down the Shenandoah Valley in Lexington, VA. Students were not allowed to use “tacks or paste of any kind,” but they still managed to display these pennants proudly. [Quote from: Freshman Training Examination, 1923. Alice Virginia Kellam Scrapbook, SC#5004.]]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Printed in a 1954 issue of Madison College&#039;s newspaper, The Breeze, this article demonstrates the strained relationship between blacks and whites in 1950s America--college campuses not exempt. Made up in ‘blackface’, white students held a party with a play and musical numbers deemed a ‘Plantation Party.” The article accompanying the image is littered with racial insensitivity as well, using the terms “pickaninnies,” and “tar baby.” President Miller and his wife were identified as the “proprietors of the plantation,” who watched the party from “the porch of the plantation manor.”]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Fraternities and sororities got their own space in the late 1970s with the construction of Greek Row by Newman Lake. Originally housing both sororities and fraternities, currently sororities are the only Greek organizations housed on campus. The area was expanded in 1987, when two more buildings were added, and several of the houses have since been converted into the Treehouse residence halls. The initial building timeline for Greek Row coincided with the school decision to allow kegs in dorms (which was later repealed). ]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[This smiling student is either packing or unpacking her overnight case on her bed. Her roommate’s bed is covered in a fringed chenille bedspread, which were very popular. Visible in the background is a radio, which freshmen were advised to bring to campus. However, they were also told that they “only need[ed] one radio to a room.” While not a set rule, this was a guideline freshmen were told before even arriving on campus. This helped shape how space in dorm rooms was allotted; since there were normally at least two students to a room, the area and entertainment must be shared; space was a precious commodity.
