International Photo Contest

Every fall, WWC students, faculty, and staff are invited to submit photographs from their travels abroad. The photos are displayed anonymously, and the Warren Wilson community has a chance to vote for their favorites.

In the 2012 International Photo Contest, senior Annie Pryor won Best Cross-Cultural Photo for her photograph taken in Aceh, Indonesia, showing Annie "learning bahasa (Indonesian) from the little perempuan (women) of Aceh." Annie traveled to Indonesia last summer with WWC professor Siti Kusujiarti as part of a research trip.
