What’s in a name?

Over the years, the Echo’s nameplate has changed as new editors determine how they want to run the newspaper. The editors bring in new designs that the staff must follow that year.

This year, I designed the 2009-2010 nameplate in an attempt to modernize the Echo. It was my pleasure to find that many students and a previous adviser of the paper complimented the new overall look of the Echo. Having a more mod-looking paper has grabbed the student bodys’ interest while still being true to student journalism. I hope that my nameplate will be the Echo’s nameplate for volumes to come. I also hope that other papers will take the opportunity to be visually appealing to readers, in addition to having interesting content.
