From the Nominator

LMU Magazine raises the academic reputation of Loyola Marymount University by leveraging the expertise of faculty and alumni to bring relevant content on current issues and topics to readers. Our message is simple: At LMU, we are actively engaged in the most pressing matters of our time and what readers care about. LMU Magazine fosters pride in the institution as its strategy for engagement of all kinds. We’ve won the trust of our audience and built a true readership. Using the web, social media, email, and our award-winning podcast, Off Press, we maintain an ongoing, timely, two-way conversation with our audience that a twice-per-year print schedule would not by itself allow.

From the Judges

Edgy, unapologetic approach to covering the institution both inside and outside of a typical university magazine purview. It captures both the spirit of LMU and its Los Angeles home. It’s impossible not to find something interesting between the covers—which, by the way, are the best in the game. Bold, engaging editorial with equally bold and engaging design, typography and illustrations. Well-organized to create a rich experience for the reader—a delight on every page.
