This postcard view of ISC Campus (early 1920s) looks southeast towards the Lincoln Way, Morrill Road and Lynn Avenue intersection from the north end of Lake LaVerne.  The Gamma Sigma Alpha house is just left of center where Memorial Lutheran Church and Student Center would be today.  The Ash House is partly visible at left.  Lincoln Way runs across the photo behind the bushes.  Lynn Avenue heads up the hill past the barn (right of center)  Today the Memorial Union would be visible at the left.  (photo courtesy of Hank Zaletel)
