Few places had a deeper claim on Woodrow Wilson than Princeton, where he studied as an undergraduate, taught for about a decade, and served as university president from 1902 to 1910 before entering politics. This 1914 glass negative records him in Princeton during his time as president of the United States. It comes from the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied newspapers with news photographs, and the title is taken from caption data the record marks as unverified, so the exact occasion is best read as a general visit to the town that year.
