I began college in September 1959 at Russell Sage in Troy, NY.All these years later, I am still astounded and angry that we were required to have these “posture photos” taken at our first gym class session. I often wonder what actually happened to those pictures. When I think back to that horrid experience, I still get feelings of anxiety(at the age of 74). From this vantage point, I see that we were young and very naive and I realize that those gym teachers were all lesbians. I have always been a progressive and open-minded thinker, so the idea that they were gay would not have disturbed me in the least. The fact that they took those pictures, though, is simply appalling. I would love to know where those pictures are today, as I think I would have a legal right to them.
