Oberlin College Archives welcomes the class of 2013 to school with a few photographs from their counterparts over a century ago. The photos, taken in 1905, show what returning students set up for the first years from the class of 1909. The "Freshman Cow" was penned up as a mock milk station for incoming freshmen. Signs read "Give the Suckers a Chance," "The Freshman Cow," "Freshman Milk Depot," and "Milk for '09 Babies."
