From balloons in India to a hot springs in Peru, Macalester students see a lot of the world when they study abroad. To celebrate their experiences and photographic talents, Campus Programs and the Library annually sponsor a Study Away Photo Contest. This year’s categories—people, environment, and culture—drew nearly 50 entries; visitors to the Campus Center display voted on winners in each. Winning entries are then displayed in Markim Hall, home to the Institute for Global Citizenship, until the next contest rolls around.
