The photos to remember 2021 at Towson University
Towson University photographers share their favorite photos from the past year
By Lauren Castellana, Alex Wright, Nick Sibol & Japhet Chukwuma on January 2, 2022
At the start of 2021, much of the Towson University community was working and studying remotely. But not Towson University’s Photographic Services team, which has been a constant presence on campus as they documented everything that’s happened over the past year.
Emotional commencement ceremonies, students returning in the fall, groundbreakings, ribbon cuttings and everything in between, TU’s photographers have been there with their cameras and their keen eyes.
Director of Photographic Services Lauren Castellana ’13, Assistant Director of Photographic Services Alexander Wright ’18 and student photographers Nicholas Sibol ’23 and Japhet Chukwuma ’24 shared their favorite photos from the past year with us.
