This week, schools in New York City will have the first parent-teacher conferences…or as we in the faculty lounge like to call them: “The Crying Game.”

"Photograph taken after midnight on April 17, 1912, G St. near 14th.

The oldest said, ‘my mother makes me sell.’" More Lewis Hine Photos in Picturing the Century
