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.

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.
