According to A Sound Past, the lady in the picture is operating a \u201cmimeograph machine which made copies of documents from a stencil wrapped around the central drum that picked up ink as the drum was turned. Each revolution of the drum cranked out another copy of whatever was on the stencil. This was the copy machine of its era and most course syllabi and examinations were made on the mimeograph machine. All you had to do was type your document on to stencil and take the stencil to the copy center where the mimeograph machine operator made your copies.\u201d You can get a workout in while you copy especially if you messed up the stencil or had to copy a long document\u2026pressing the Print button gives me enough anxiety.<\/p>\n<p>Check out more pictures in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pugetsound.edu\/academics\/academic-resources\/collins-memorial-library\/archives\/\">Archives &amp; Special Collections<\/a> or go online to <a href=\"http:\/\/digitalcollections.pugetsound.edu\/cdm\/search\/collection\/upsimages\">A Sound Past<\/a>.
