  I wonder what course that was, there seems to be a high number of women grads for the time?

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Absolutely, Sarah, so hoping someone might spot a familiar face that might allow us to narrow it down...

  Great shot

• Niall McAuley said:

  Several different hoods being worn, these are graduates from several degree courses.

• Niall McAuley said:

  There is a reference to UCD conferring on Page 3 of the Irish Times of Monday July 17th, but it's behind a paywall. Ditto Page 2 of the Indo that Monday. And the Sunday Indo of the 16th, page 2.

A soft day thank God!

  Guildford High Street was on the important old coaching road between London and Portsmouth (the prime naval docks), and would have been a very busy road. A new Guildford bypass opened in 1934 (a couple of years before this photo) - would this explain Mr O'Dea's interest ? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A3_road www.sabre-roads.org.uk/wiki/index.php?title=A3/History Bypass opening 1934 film - youtu.be/LpM4u4TXrP0

from The Library of Congress

• Wystan said:

  Photo bears date June 7, 1911, as does the cornerstone itself: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2163478442/in/p... The gentlemen identified by name are Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University, and Seth Low, former Columbia president and former Mayor of New York City, who in 1911 was chairman of Tuskegee Institute in Alabama. The son of a wealthy China trader, Low had donated the Low Memorial Library to Columbia University, naming it for his father.

• Anne (LOC P&P) said:

  Wystan: Thanks for bringing our attention to the date on the negative, and for the more complete information about Butler and Low. We'll add these to the record next time we update.
