Announcing the Sixth Annual A&S Study Abroad Photo Contest sponsored by Murphy’s Camera!

The Arts & Sciences Office of Advising and Student Services invites you to participate in the Sixth Annual Study Abroad Photo Contest.  This is an opportunity for you to share your study abroad travel experiences and memories while also showcasing your skills as a photographer! We’re certain that many of you have taken wonderful photos of your travels and hope that you will be willing to share these with the rest of the U of L campus community.  

Eligibility:

Any A&S student who has studied abroad with/through the University of Louisville during the Spring 2012, Summer 2012 or Fall 2012 semesters.

Photo Contest rules:

• Maximum number of photos submitted for the contest is 3 per student. (Not ALL will be used – When submitting, please rank order of preference for display purposes).
