"View From a Stained Glass Window (Annecy, France)." Photograph by Monica Germinario. This is a view from the window of Chateau d'Annecy. The stained glass distorts the colors and scene outside the window.
The Study Abroad Photo Contest gives students the opportunity to share their experiences traveling and learning overseas. Every year returning study abroad students' photos are displayed on campus.
