As fate would have it, I never took a class in there (or any journalism courses), being an Art History major; and with the student newspaper housed in a former frat house off campus, I entered only once, to photograph a professor (Jay Sykes - the father of television commentator Charlie Sykes). < http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/The+Sixties/19690428_MR_POST_3.jpg.html > An office portrait of Perry Baer, a philosopher. < http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/The+Sixties/19691016_MR_POST_25.jpg.html I found this chair facing a wall of gauges amusing. < http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/The+Seventies/19700903_MR_Mine_B021c_18.jpg.html > All can be viewed large. -- Alan Alan Magayne-Roshak, Senior Photographer University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Photo Services (Retired) UPAA Photographer of the Year 1978 UPAA Master of the Profession 2014 amagayneroshak at gmail.com <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/> "All the technique in the world doesn't compensate for an inability to notice.
