Female students work in a laboratory at the University of Oregon. They sit at wooden tables on wooden stools conducting experiments. The women are dressed in smocks or aprons. Pots raised on metal stands are being heated from below with Bunsen burners. One of the women looks through a microscope. Containers filled with unidentifed materials are visible on the table tops. Light fixtures and light bulbs hang from the ceiling of the room. In the background of the image a wooden box, cabinet, and metal ventilation device are visible.
