Portraits of State College

Photo posted March 7, 2012 in News by College of Communications

Advanced photojournalism students follow a trail, directed by their subjects, to photograph portraits around the community. The assignment, called Three Degrees of Separation, required each student to photograph three people. The first subject was to point the photographer to a second subject and that person directed the photojournalism student to their third portrait.
