FIU Honors College Magazine Design

Cover and two spreads from my recently designed Honors College semi-annual magazine for Florida International University.

MIAMI (September 13, 2011)- Summa cum Laude, the FIU Honors College magazine, has been awarded first prize for best publication in the faculty/administration/student-published category by the National Collegiate Honors Council. The magazine was selected from among fifteen publications competing for the award. Read more...

So this is how I'm currently spending my daytime hours. I recently designed the Honors College semi-annual magazine for Florida International University from front cover to back cover. You can view the entire publication by following this link and clicking on the magazine thumbnail: FIU Honors College Magazine

Update: Below someone posting as anonymous has accused me of misappropriating the design of this award winning publication. Rest assured, I and I alone laid out the spreads, chose and set the type, edited and placed the artwork, and designed the ads that appear on several pages except for the student submitted ad on the back cover. As you can see here I am credited on the front page as designer. In fact, I was responsible for the design of Summa Cum Laude magazine from 2011 to 2014 and I have the credit on each and everyone of those issues to prove it. To make accusations such as this anonymous fraud is making is beyond the pale and a personal insult and I challenge him/her to reveal themselves and make a proper claim.
