On your next visit to the library, you will see displayed on the coffee shop walls several winning photographs from the Study Abroad Photo Contest taken by St. Thomas students. 

These are beautifully compelling photographs that document the varied and unforgettable experiences of our students while studying and visiting abroad with the International Studies Department.

We are excited to display this series of photos through the winter months and we plan to update them with new photos in the spring.

The current display features the work of Tony Bombardo, Ashley Ciborowski, Amanda Devins, Brin Hanson, Erin Lyle, Ben Michel, Rachel Nichols and Chelsea Seys. The photo contest gave awards in two categories: Sense of Place and Intercultural Experience.
