Photography Students Publish A Book Together With Design Students In Taiwan

Photography students in Prof. Jasna Bogdanovska's Photography I class had a rare opportunity to collaborate virtually with students from the Digital Media Design School at National Yunlin University of Science and Technology in Taiwan this past spring. The students in Taiwan were under the lead of Prof. Wen Huei Chou, a Fulbright scholar who just finished her year long residency in the US. The students from both countries were teamed up and worked on the project that was a visual conversation on various themes. They combined words, photographs and drawings. The project was published in Taiwan in a book entitled Y & M International Cooperate Project (see attached.)

Professor Chou visited MCC in April 2016 as part of the Institute for International Education/Fulbright's Outreach Visitor program which provides funding for Fulbright Scholars to visit community colleges. She met with VaPA faculty members, gave two lectures, and visited a photography exhibit at the Eastman Museum with Professor Bogdanovska. Both faculty plan to continue their successful collaboration.
