EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in time at Iowa State College in Ames, Iowa, back in May 1942. Taken by the talented photographer Jack Delano, it showcases a group of young students emerging from the library. The image exudes an air of intelligence and academic pursuit. The students, predominantly women dressed in skirts and sweaters, walk with purpose and determination towards their next destination on campus. Their youthful energy is palpable as they navigate through the entrance of the library. This photograph serves as a testament to the importance of education during this period. It was taken during the height of World War II when knowledge was seen as crucial for progress and development. The New Deal policies implemented by President Roosevelt aimed to uplift society through education, making this image even more significant. Delano's composition skillfully captures both the exterior architecture of the library building and its surroundings while also highlighting these young minds eager to expand their intellectual horizons. As we gaze upon this historical print from Granger Art on Demand's collection, we are transported back to a time when learning held immense value amidst uncertain times. It reminds us that education has always been vital for personal growth and societal advancement – an enduring truth that resonates across generations.
