York, NY—On April 8, 2003, Barnard announced the winners
for SNAP: See New Abroad Photos, an annual photo contest and
exhibit for students who studied abroad during the academic
year. Every year more than 150 Barnard students study abroad
in countries as diverse as Australia, Chile, Cuba, Czech Republic,
France, Germany, Israel, Italy, Japan, and South Africa. There
were 49 photos submitted by 16 students for the four-day exhibit
which was open to the community.
Photos were judged by Adjunct Assistant Professors of Architecture
Alicia Imperiale and Madeline Schwartzman and Senior Lecturer
in Art History Joan Snitzer. Prizes were awarded in each of
the following categories: Landscape, Journalism, Creative,
and Documentary. Prizes were donated by ARAMARK, the Student
Store, the Office for Career Development, the Office of Public
Affairs; and Caffe Taci, Cardomat, Deluxe, Garber Travel,
Kitchenette, Le Monde and Scott J Salon. The winning photographs
are shown here.
The event was sponsored by the International Education Fund
of the offices of the Provost and the Dean of the College.

Assistant Dean and Study Abroad Adviser at 212.854.2024.
Barnard
College, a distinguished leader in higher education for women
for over 100 years, is today the most sought after private
liberal arts college for women in the nation. Founded in 1889,
the College was the first in New York City, and one of the
few in the nation at the time, where women could receive the
same rigorous liberal arts education available to men. Independent
but affiliated with Columbia University, Barnard maintains
its own administration, trustees, faculty, curriculum, endowment,
budget and campus. Barnard students may take classes at Columbia,
as Columbia students may do at Barnard. Barnard alumnae include
pioneers like anthropologist Margaret Mead and Judith Kaye,
the first female Chief Judge of the State of New York, along
with prominent cultural figures such as choreographer Twyla
Tharp, writers Zora Neale Hurston, and Mary Gordon, and Pulitzer
Prize-winning journalists Anna Quindlen and Natalie Angier.
