Fordham Announces Fall 2009 Study Abroad Photo Contest Winners

The Office of International and Study Abroad Programs is pleased to announce the winning photos from its semi-annual Study Abroad Photo Contest.

These three photos were selected from 24 entries submitted by students who studied abroad during the 2008-2009 academic year.

First Place:

Elissa Dauria, FCLC senior, communications and Spanish major, snapped this photo during the April festival, a 150-year old tradition in southern Spain.

"Feria De Sevilla"

Location: Seville, Spain



Second Place:

Carly Levine, FCLC senior, communications and visual arts major, took this photo during her spring break while studying in Rome. She writes, "We all hopped off our bus to revel in the beauty, peace, quiet and relaxation of the sunset. It was a rarity for us to have seen the salt lakes filled with water, since the land usually appears dry and salty, where you can usually walk over it by foot or travel over the grounds by vehicle."

"Sensual Salt Lake Sunset"

Location: Chott el-Jerid, Tunisia



Third Place:

Norah Janson, CBA senior, took this photo during the Summer 2009 Emerging Markets course offered by ISAP and IPED in Pretoria, South Africa.

"The Road"

Location: South Africa



Congratulations to our winners. Many thanks to everyone who contributed to the contest!
