A black-and-white photograph shows women standing in front of the fence around the White House. They wear sashes around their torsos that read the names of colleges, and they hold banners that read 'Mr. President, how long must women wait for liberty,' and 'Mr. President, what will you do for woman suffrage.' A handwritten caption reads 'The first picket line—College Day in the picket line, Feb 1917.'
