Oakland University's social media team held the annual #ThisIsOU Fall Photo Contest generating more than 70 submissions from students across academic disciplines.


All submissions were posted to the OU Facebook page and several were shared on the oaklandu Instagram and Twitter accounts. 


Entries were judged on how OU spirit was incorporated into the composition as well as photo quality and popularity on social media.

OU's social media team will hold another photo contest leading up to fall and spring commencements where graduating students can decorate their regalia for a chance to win a diploma frame and parting OU swag. The annual winter photo contest will be held in February. Details will be posted to oakland.edu/social.
