Olde Sukkot (mobiles and mini's)

Both the car and the campus layout behind Campus Center are telltale signs that this picture predates the 1980's.
A similar small trailer was shlepped onto the podium by Rabbi Israel Rubin himself - up the small ramp near the flagpoles. The SUNY President at the time walked out of the (then) Administration Building to witness this, and came over to help. Years later, at an area Jewish testimony in his honor this President said that seeing the Rabbi dragging the trailer was one of the most inspirational moments - witnessing actual dedication.
