Women's college placemat - Few Graduate Quadrangle
Description:
This placemat depicting the newly-constructed Few Graduate Quadrangle may have been used at the Woman's College. Author and Woman’s College faculty member G. Hope Summerall Chamberlain designed the placemat. Notice the illustrations of dogwoods, now the North Carolina state flower. The Few Graduate Quadrangle was named after President William Preston Few. The creation of this placemat coincides with Duke’s first Centennial celebration, which occurred in the 1938-1939 academic year.
