Co-op photo contest shows range of experiences |

Victoria Francis flies through the air with the greatest of ease on her co-op work term as a zipline adventure guide for Adrena Line Zipline Adventure Tours in Sooke. “In this photo I am demonstrating a move called the spaghetti man to guests on the launching deck as I zip over the old Victoria water pipeline.”

Harpaul Padda communes with the zucchini on his work term as a research assistant with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. “My crew and I collected zucchinis from the buffer rows of our experiment in our field plot. We dumped all of the collected zucchinis in the back of the truck. I ended up with the zucchinis as well.”
Every year, UVic co-op students are invited to submit photos of their work term experiences to the Co-op Photo Contest. More than 300 photos were collected this year and were displayed at the 2009 Co-op Info Day event in early September. Hundreds of students voted on their favourite photos. Social Sciences Co-op student Victoria Francis and Biology Co-op student Harpaul Padda tied for first place and each took home $375. Hundreds of photo entries are currently being displayed in Co-op and Career program offices across campus so that current and prospective co-op students can appreciate their peers’ diverse co-op experiences.
