Caption reads: "Mothers, teachers and several professional people including a dentist, are studying Child Development this year at the College of Home Economics, Cornell University, Summer Session. Each student does research in his particular field of interest and reports to the class during weekly informal discussion groups. Above, from the left, are Miss Miriam Washington, a homemaking teacher in the Junior High School, Pensacola, FL, Mrs. Badarunnisa Begum Quraishi, who received her doctorate in entomology and zoology from Cornell in June 1948, and Mrs. Lillian Ostrander, a teacher of home economics in the Malden (NY) high school. Head of the Zoology Departmentat the Osmania University College for Women, Hyderbad Deccan, India, Mrs. Quraishi has children of her own which accounts for her decision to study child development this summer before returning to India in the fall."
