Multiple emotions were experienced in the “Escape Faculty”, a contest that measured the knowledge of students on aspects of the program.
Finally, awards were given for the photography contest, in which the categories “Beyond the eye” and “More than hair and pets” were recognized.
The aspects that were taken into account when choosing the winners were: 1. Technical and aesthetic quality: framing, focus and luminosity that make them attractive and pleasant. Originality: both in the theme and in the text accompanying it.
In the “Beyond the eye” category, second place went to “Bosque Azul” (Blue Forest), by María José Avella. First place went to “Linterna verde un sacrificio micótico”, by Iveth Carolina Suárez Duarte.
In the category “More than hair and pets”, the winner was “An anemia disguised as witchcraft”, by Andrea Carolina García Arévalo.
