TIUA is sponsoring an ASP Yearbook Photo Contest. Each year, students and staff create a yearbook, which reflects all that happened during that year through photographs. For the second year, there is a contest to select some photos for the yearbook. The contest is open to students, staff and faculty of Willamette University, including the American Studies Program, and Tomodachi Program participants. There are some great prizes, including two $50, four $25, and 10 $10 Compass Cash cards. In addition, if your photo is selected, you will be credited in the yearbook.
The contest deadline is April 22.
