Terry Vitacco, College of DuPage Professor Emeritus, taught all levels of photography courses during her 30-year career. She was also the Coordinator of the Photography Program, which offered a great diversity of photography courses during her tenure there.

"I always incorporated practical studio and field experience, hands-on tutorials and theory in all my classes. Critiques were also very important. I wanted students to share the process they used to make their most successful photographs. I believe this created a collaborative learning environment where students were able to express themselves creatively, build professional skills, and learn how to use them in the real world."
