Psychology students Colleen Hourihan (left) and Cathy Ryan (right), wearing blouses, skirts, and glasses, stand in a classroom, holding a large black piece of cardboard with the words '...here's to Baby' printed on it. There is a window behind them, with the curtains drawn. "...here's to Baby" is a health information kit they created to inform the public about fetal alcohol syndrome. More cardboard pieces of the information kit can be seen in a pile on the table in front of them.
