About this postcard

Founders Hall at Juniata College rises behind a lawn and mature trees, its brick facade capped by a central tower and mansard roof. Juniata College, founded in 1876 by the Church of the Brethren, was still a small denominational school in the early 1900s, and the quiet campus view fits that setting. The sender's note, "It is a nice place but have to study hard," catches the mix of pride and complaint familiar to college life.
