ShutterButton: Frosh Traditions of Yore

Remember freshman year? You didn't have to brave the cold to see any of your friends (sorry, peasants of Hill), your writing seminar portfolio was your biggest worry, and you had to kiss Ben Franklin's boot before receiving your freshman button, as this faithful frosh of the Class of 1955 is pictured doing here. Clearly, some Penn Traditions come and go and we're kinda glad that this one is gone for good. (Besides the fact that it involved buttons. Bring back the buttons.) Nevertheless, it  appears that the tradition of paying our respects to B-Frank will eternally live on.
