Biology Student Wins Aztec for Life Photo Contest
Nina Lee, who will receive a new iPad2 for winning the contest, shares her SDSU story.
Second-year biology student Nina Lee needed a break from studying for an upcoming physics exam.
She decided to check her e-mail and that’s when she discovered the photo she submitted to the SDSU Month Aztec for Life Photo Contest won her a new iPad2.
“I was in the library and I knew I needed to be quiet,” she said. “But I just couldn’t help myself and I squealed!”
Lee’s photo featured members of the Asian Pacific Student Alliance after they won the annual Homecoming competition for student organizations.
“It’s tradition for the guys to paint their chests for the Homecoming game, but this year was particularly special because we won,” explained Lee, who joined the organization as a freshman last year.
