From caption on back of photograph: "Degrees of bachelor of art and bachelor of music, as well as diplomas, were conferred yesterday upon graduates of the College of the Holy Names, a portion of whom are shown here. They are (top row, left to right), Letitia Corcoran, Katherine Johanna Murphy, and Thelma Marie Ferrario, Magnu Cum Laude; (second from top, left to right) Inger Marie Kroman, Lucille Cathryn Failing and Mary Anita Nugent; (third row, left to right), Henriette Marie Pagano, Gertrude Mary Blackstock and Jane Elizabeth Aselstine; (fourth row, left to right) Catherine Frances Giovannoni, Mary Grace Wilson and Martha Daines Steward. In the front row are (left to right) Right Reverend Joseph M. Gleason and Father Edward J. Whelan." Twelve students pose for a photograph on the steps of a College of the Holy Names building. All are dressed in cap and gown. At the front stand two reverends in religious clothing; the one on the left is dressed more formally than the one on the right. Some of the girls are looking at the camera while others look away. Part of the proper left side of the photograph has been torn away.
