The Winter Dress Uniform

Scope and Contents

Back of Photograph Reads: "Sunday Winter Uniform -- Angie Mae Miller" "The Winter Dress Uniform: The uniform adopted is neat, tasteful, hygienic, comfortable, and economical. As all students dress alike, there are not distinctions among students on the artificial basis of clothes, and there is no temptation to large expenditures in a rivalry to out dress one another. In selecting the style and material of the uniform, consideration has been given to the climate and to the fact that people work better when they are dressed comfortably." (SGSNC Bulletin, 1913-1914, p. 23) Each girl had to have a winter dress uniform, "one coat suit of navy blue serge, lined with gray Belding silp, made according to college specification, which endeavor to provide for comfort, durability, and a style adapted to girls of varying ages. Price $13.75 . . . . This suit will be worn on Sunday and on other formal occasions (not for evening dress) from soon after the opening of the school in September until approximately April first." (SGSNC Bulletin, 1913-1914, p. 23). [Original: 4" x 6 3/4", B&W Photograph.]
