Interior view of a classroom at the State Normal School of Colorado (later University of Northern Colorado) in Greeley (Weld County), Colorado. Students sit at wooden desks and hold pencils and paper. Ceramic pots, urns, vases or teapots are on display between desks. A man, probably a professor, stands in front of the desks. Women wear upswept hair styles and pleated dresses. Stenciled lettering on window transoms reads: "Are You in Earnest Seize This Very Minute What You Can Do or Think You Can Begin it" "I See My Way as Birds Their Pathless Way I Shall Arrive" "Be Honest in Temptation and in Adversity Believe in God" and "I Am a Part of All That I Have Seen."
