ST. CLOUD — St. Cloud State University is celebrating its sesquicentennial this year. Once a month Archivist Tom Steman is on the News @ Noon Show to highlight some of the events from the university’s past. Tuesday we talked about life on campus during the 1950s.
Freshman “Beanies” were first worn in 1937. Art Grachek arrived on campus in 1958 and fondly remembers wearing the beanie.
