Move-in is a rite of passage at Illinois State University, and it’s an adventure our newest students and their families will soon embark upon.
They’re far from the first Redbirds to hover over their delicately stacked rolling cart, or to use plastic wrap to keep everything in place for the trip upstairs.
There will be lots and lots of #RedbirdMoveIn photos on social media from this year’s festivities, but what about 10, 20, or 30 years ago?
Let’s take a trip down memory lane with some of our favorite historic move-in photos, courtesy of April Anderson at Illinois State’s Dr. Jo Ann Rayfield Archives.
