Starting off the new year in journalism by creating a photo gallery for The Eagle on the opening of American University’s School of Communication’s new home in the McKinley Building. Though up and running, there are still plenty of areas under construction.

Today is my last full day in Costa Rica. And I’m OK with that. I’ve got a great winter break and semester in the works, and what I’ve done here has been phenomenal.
The fact that seeing the gaping maw of an active volcano is considered a day trip here reminds me just how amazing this country is.
I haven’t toured churches this intensely since my trip to Italy in 2010. But Costa Rica was the perfect place to do it. With such a rich history of Catholicism, the country is a rich case study in religious architecture, both old and new.
Seeing the beautiful red-eyed tree frogs and learning how to make chocolate from scratch was a great way to close my study abroad program.
Don’t worry, I’ve documented both for you.
I’m going to go ahead and call Monteverde the ziplining capital of Costa Rica. Absolutely incredible. Plus, some waterfall rappelling is quite the workout.
The Caribbean isn’t restricted to the islands. Costa Rica has its own beautiful slice of tropical heaven.
Volunteering at a turtle conservation project in Matapalo was simply incredible. A couple of reflections and photos from the experience after the jump.
I took some of my favorite photos of the trip at the white-sand beaches and lush jungles of Parque Nacional Manuel Antonio.
