[Inexplicable images from generations ago invite us to restore the lost
sense of immediacy. We follow the founder of the Theater of
Spontaneity, Jacob Moreno, who proposed stringing together "now and then
flashes" to unfetter illusion and let imagination run free. The images
we have collected for this series came at a tremendous price, which we explained previously.] |

Given the "olive" in the college's name, didn't expect pickles. But we did find a single Google result for olives being mistaken for pickles, in Punch, 1948:

Colonel: Cider! Pickles! The cider was champagne, and the pickles are olives, Mr. Yankee. [Aside.] What an ignorant son of a gun it is!
Table of contents from Mount Olive's 1977 yearbook.
