Fordham College at Rose Hill junior Cassandra Lombardi, a communications and media studies major, has been selected as a finalist in the national University Language Service Photo Contest for her artistic perspective of Rome’s famous Via Del Corso as it stretches, endlessly, to the horizon.

Lombardi took the photo while she was a study abroad student in Rome during the Fall 2010 semester. If Lombardi’s photo is voted as one of the top two, she has a shot at a $500 college scholarship.

Lombardi is up against some stiff competition from five other student photographers. If you would like to support Lombardi, you can vote for her in the contest at the ULS website. It only takes a few seconds to support a member of the Fordham community by clicking here (or at the url below), checking the circle next to Lombardi’s name, and then submitting your choice on the Vote icon.

Winners of the scholarship contest will be announced on or around April 25, 2011.
