Long before "digital photography" we didn't have the choice of having a family member or friend take our grad photos.  You went to a professional photographer and your choices of backgrounds were limited.  I think most of us had an indoor head shot, a picture leaning into a tree with a leg up, a picture laying on the ground peeking around a tree and if you got your picture taken at Dean'

Dan Russell has been the Executive Director of the DECC for years. His knowledge of concerts and events is interesting and at times, humorous. (I don’t expect anything less from Dan)!  With the 50th anniversary of the DECC coming up in August I thought I’d pull a Barbara Walters and interview Mr. Russell. It certainly brought back memories for me and gave me insight to things that happened behind
