In the top left corner of the invitation page is a lithographic image by C. A. Wright, Philadelphia, that depicts a variety of scholarly and literary objects arranged on a cloth-covered table. The second page consists of the program for the event. The third page lists the names of nine literary societies: Lone Star, Athena, Baldwin, Houstonian, Philomathean, Eclectic, House, Ross, and Senate. Handwritten in ink on the back of the cover are the words "Mom's graduation program Mary McAlister McCutchan," probably written at a later date by her daughter-in-law Johnnie McCutchan.
