Through custom-publishing partnerships with campus clients, it has reached 66,000 additional alumni readers last year while also generating revenue.
From the Judges
A lot of great stuff in these issues. I like the sideways "Tall order" story and the different headlines for features. The ultra-bold cover embodies the graphic spirit of the magazine. The use of gold lines and boxes ties the entire magazine together and is a strong, formal element within the interior of the publication.
