Thanks to Our Judges

Our panel of judges included Allen Topolski, professor of art and art history; Brandon Vick, digital assets manager for University Communications; and Maya Dukmasova ’12 (T5), a former winner in the contest and now a journalist based in Chicago.

Jacqueline Levine ’80, ’84 (Mas), director of the Center for Study Abroad and Interdepartmental Programs, helped coordinate the contest.

For the seventh edition of our annual Study Abroad Photo Contest, we received more than 215 photos from more than 50 students who took part in academic programs sponsored by the College Center for Study Abroad during 2014.

Submitted in the categories of culture, people, and physical world, the photos were taken in more than three dozen countries, representing five continents.

We also invited international students to submit their photos of the United States.

Grand prize winners receive a gift certificate to the University bookstore. Category winners and other finalists also receive prizes.
