Starting 2023, CFRES is holding a photo contest. These photos are from students (undergraduate or graduate). If you’re a student and you’d like to submit images, here are the following guidelines:
- Any undergraduate or graduate student can submit a photo
- Photos of students in class, in labs are welcome as well as other subjects
- Photos should be taken during the month in which the contest is being run
- Each student can submit no more than 3 photos per month
- Photos taken within the Keweenaw region are preferred
- By submitting your photos, you agree to allow CFRES to reproduce them (with attribution) in future web or print materials
- Email Sarah Atkinson (sjbird@mtu.edu) up to three photos per student per month by the end of the month.
The winner for January was Sam Kurkowski, a graduate student here. The winning image can be seen below.
Here are the other photos that students submitted, in no particular order. Thanks to everyone who participated!
