Archivists titled this photograph simply “happy grads with leis.” They also provided the date it was taken: June 3, 1997, Princeton’s 250th Commencement. The University conferred degrees on 601 undergraduate men and 485 women that year, and awarded 606 advanced degrees. Fred Hargadon, then dean of admission, addressed grads at Class Day, and Sen. William Frist ’74 was Baccalaureate speaker. Can any ’97ers identify the classmates pictured?
