Summary edit

Description
English: The Glee Club of Fisk University, c. 1910. The caption from the source document states: "In 1871 the original "Fisk Jubilee Singers" were sent out to secure money for the erection of a building or buildings for the University. They sang in all the Northern states, in the British Isles, and on the continent of Europe. After an absence of seven years they brought back to Fisk $150,000, with which Jubilee Hall was built. The balance due on the campus was paid, and the institution gained an international reputation".
