Portrait of a Saint

A SaintPORTRAIT OF Chester Alamo-Costello has been working on a special centennial project—a book titled, "University of St. Francis: Portraits at Centennial." Alamo-Costello, who started working at USF in 1999, has taken roughly 600 portraits since 2002, and a sampling of those images will be used, along with images of the campuses. The book will also include an introduction by AlamoCostello, essays by faculty and staff members, and other USF content.

The book design is being produced by Art & Design students in Alamo-Costello's "Publication Design" classes, though the work was cut short in the spring due to the COVID-19 pandemic, so the book is still in production.

Surrounding these pages are some of Alamo-Costello's images. This page: Paul Erschen, professor of art & design; Allison Heard, director of institutional diversity. Facing page: Top row - Jessica Cuevas '14, Nikka Gonzales '20. Bottom row - Amber Mustoe '05; Sarah Haley '13; Dr. Bill Bromer, recently retired professor of biology and environmental science; Austin Hines '20.
