I don't know what the intent of that is, but I know it would have made me crazy as an undergraduate. It was much easier to describe someone as "The one with the fuschia sweater", etc. than to say "You know, that girl with the big brown hair"(which was almost everybody back in the 80's) when trying to remember who was who. Although, we never got pictures of PNMs and I imagine at Arkansas they do.
