Four students sit on a stone bench with their backs to the camera, each wearing a navy blue drawstring backpack featuring the UConn (University of Connecticut) Husky logo. They are attentively listening to a student guide who stands in front of them, speaking. The setting appears to be a lush campus area with green trees and blooming yellow daylilies in the foreground.
