Welcome back students! Classes started yesterday and campus is all a-buzz with the excitement of the new school year. While many things have changed about college over the years, one thing remains the same: move in day! Included here are some pictures from the 1960s that would be very similar to scenes of students moving in this year to start a new year of school. These photos and many more documenting the history of the University can be found in the University of Alabama Encyclopedia.
