Tuskegee Institute students digging the foundations
Tuskegee Institute students digging the foundations for Collis P. Huntington Memorial building, 1902. While working, they learned construction trade skills and erected the college building at a modest cost of $50, 000. Huntington was one of the American philanthropists that contributed to the African American college. Photo by Frances Benjamin Johnston (BSLOC_2017_20_130)
