Photo Night is an annual showcase for photography - from professionals and students - here on our campus, the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.

This year’s showcase - presented by UTC’s Department of Communication - is Wednesday, March 6th in the Roland Hayes Concert Hall in the Fine Arts Center: a reception begins at 5:30 PM and the program starts at 6 PM.

Billy Weeks is associate lecturer of photojournalism at UTC.

I spoke with him - and three students: Bethany Cothran, editor-in-chief of Rising Rock; Olivia Smith, also part of the Rising Rock class - and Taylor McKinley, social media and advertising manager for The Echo student newspaper.
