  1. The second photo of the yearbook staff appears o be at the UH University Park Campus at the Student Center atrium. It may not be there anymore but when I was there this sculpture of what appeared to be a dragon being attacked by a cougar was prominent in the open air area outside of the bookstore on the ground level, the bowling alley unde rneath. I was there from 86 to 90 so it was familiar then.

    1. Thank you, Scott! I'm guessing that would put the first picture also outdoors on the UH campus, since everyone is wearing the same clothing.
