Workman Hall Dedication, 1967, photo 3

This image shows a student sitting at a reel-to-reel tape recorder during the dedication of Workman Residence Hall, built 1938, at Appalachian State University (1967-current) in August 1967. He can be seen wearing headphones and adjusting a setting on the recorder, and is likely recording the speeches made at the dedication ceremony. Another student can be seen in the background sitting at an organ. Workman Hall was dedicated to Economics Professor John H. Workman and his sister, elementary school teacher Sara Workman. It was formerly the first Faculty Apartments building on campus, providing eight apartments and thirty single rooms for faculty and staff.
