Best Loved women, 1937
In a tradition in place for several decades at Lawrence University in Appleton, the four senior women voted “Best Loved” by their classmates attended a banquet dressed in costume as George and Martha Washington and James and Dolly Madison. At the first “Best Loved” banquet in 1924, guests offered toasts to the Boston Tea Party, Valley Forge and the framing of the Constitution.
