Humans of Old Main: Fall Collection

by Patrick Coy-Bjork ’23

This year, the English department’s social media team has been going around Old Main every day to take pictures of people and happenings around the building. We’ve been posting these photos to Instagram and have called this series “Humans of Old Main,” after Brandon Stanton’s famous “Humans of New York.” Below is a collection of some of our favorite Humans of Old Main posts so far. Enjoy!
