Tuesday, December 8, 1964 The Frances Hubbard Diaires

December 8, 1964
Tuesday, partly cloudy, 20's.  I ironed in am and finished in the evening.  Clifton went to Cobleskill at noon.  He worked on tractor in am and finally got it started but didn't run good.  I cut out blocks for quilt Missionary Meeting at night.  Took check to Frisbie Hall for Gerald.
Comment: Dad signs up for unemployment and takes check for me to Coby Ag and Tech, probably for transcripts for my job applications at Ford and other places.....a little history about "Coby Tech" as we used to call it:  


SUNY Cobleskill was chartered in 1911 and opened in 1916 as the Schoharie State School of Agriculture with one building, five faculty members and eight students, all young men desiring post-secondary education in agriculture.

By 1928 the College consisted of four main buildings, now known as the quadrangle, with Frisbie Hall being the headquarters for the teacher training classes, an out cropping of the home economics program which had been started for young women.....

You're always young in your mind it is said, No matter the face in the mirror, That you see with surprise then say to yourself, "What is that old man doing here?"
