Walton Study Abroad Instagram Photo Contest Results
The first-place photos of the Instagram contest.
The third annual Walton Study Abroad Instagram Photo Contest has announced its winners for this year! Early this semester, Walton students who studied abroad in 2017 were encouraged to enter their pictures to the categories of Local People, Culture, Hogs Abroad, Places, and Historic of the photo contest to be featured on Instagram.
The many submissions were voted on by Instagram followers and the most-liked photos were passsed on to a faculty round of judging. Thank you from the Global Engagement Office to all who submitted photos and participated in this year's contest! Congratulations to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners!
To view all the submissions to the contest, check out the Walton Study Abroad Instagram (@walton_studyabroad) and maybe they will encourage you to study abroad in the near future!
