City College of New York (New York, NY)

Since the 1920s reports have been made that students and professors have recognized apparitions seen as former students.  These apparitions are said t haunt the former political club lounges of Shepherd Hall.  In one case, a math tutor noticed that a student's clothes looked somewhat dated for the time period (the mid 1920s) and he inquired how the student was doing financially since at the time the college was still basically free and most of the student body was comprised of working class students.  Only later on did the professor wake and realize that the student he had seen had died in World War I in France in 1918.
Apparitions in clothing from the 1960s and 1970s have also been seen.
Another apparition seen in grunge clothing is seen and always seems sad.  He is only seen either just before or just after closing hours.
