Foothill College architects study plans for the new college while standing near the giant rocks that are still at the entrance to the college. Standing near the rocks are chief architects Earnest J. Kump (in light colored suite with glasses) and Charles Masten (wearing hat, facing camera.) Third man is not identified.

A construction crew works on the roof of one of the original classroom buildings at Foothill. One part of the award winning design was the "hat" or bump up at the top of the roof of each building. The "hat" was used to hide the unsightly ventilation equipment from public view, an important innovation in 1959.
