From creepy, crawly bugs in the lab to street art in the Caribbean, the adventures of the College of Arts and Sciences community's days are worth a thousand words.

So why not use pictures to put the spotlight on those experiences?

“For the last three years, we’ve asked our college community to share personal moments in their day-to-day lives,” said Amy Weaver, director of marketing and communications for the College of Arts and Sciences. “The vast majority of participants have been students and they always impress us — not only with the incredible beauty of their photos but with the work they’re doing, the places they’re visiting, the insights they share and their great senses of humor.”

Voting on 50 finalists wrapped up July 26 for this year’s round of the #CoASDayintheLife photo contest.
