The year in pictures 2022
January 6, 2023
Inspired by the many professional outlets who shared their 2022 in pictures, we decided our student newspaper, The DePaulia and sister publication, La DePaulia should also display our proudest photos of this past year.
The DePaulia felt the best way to showcase their work was compile a list of some of the top pictures taken in 2022. In chronological order, the pictures include monumental moments covered by our newsroom, like once in a life-time basketball shots, features of students’ break-through fashion, historical timing of Chicago’s sunsets and parade after parades of impactful movements within our city.
Here are 29 of The DePaulia’s most memorable and triumphant photos for 2022.
