Kaleidoscope Photo Contest Features Images from Around the World

The Kaleidoscope International Photo Contest, hosted annually by Vassar’s Office of International Services (OIS),  showcases students’ (and some alums’) photographs of places, people, and cultures they have encountered during their travels. International students are specifically encouraged to submit their photographs of experiences they’ve had within the U.S. or other countries they’ve visited. Winners are announced during Kaleidoscope, Vassar’s annual celebration of cultural diversity, organized by OIS each fall semester. This year, winners were chosen in three categories. Here are a few examples of their excellent work.
