Sleuthing Series – Enrollment on the new JCCC campus

27JCCC Archives presents the Sleuthing Series, where every Tuesday, we bring you an image from our past and ask you to help us find out more!

What We Know

This photo and those below are dated August 17, 1972.
The first six buildings on the brand new campus were being readied for classes to begin within weeks.
In his history of JCCC, historian Charles Bishop notes (page 39) that “There was no electricity in the Admissions and Records offices, so Director of Admissions Linda Dayton and her staff used camp lanterns to register students at night, hand tallied enrollments during the day and then drove over to the old campus four or five times a day to enter the data into the computer.”

Where, and in which building, is this located?
Besides Linda Dayton, who are the other people in this and the photos below?
What details are significant to students in how this process is different today?

Contact librarians: Anita Gordon Gilmore (agordong@jccc.edu, ext. 4369) or John Russell (jrussell@jccc.edu, ext. 3284). You may also comment below!

Details of the enrollment process are recorded in course catalogs and class schedules of previous years, and in other announcements/publications from the Admissions Office.
