A lantern slide featuring a group of men and women gathered in an unidentified dorm room. It is not clearly known whether this is a dormitory room at the International YMCA Training School. The structure of the room is consistent with that of other dorm rooms inside the Dormitory Building (now the Administration Building) however the decoration within room and the Wellesley banner hanging from the window are cause for question. The men and women gathered in the room appear to be faculty or staff member, not students. The man on the far right resembles Jacob Bowne, however we cannot make a positive identification.
