There are many things to like about the new Monmouth<\/em> magazine. The editorial content and the heft and feel of the magazine suggest \u201cquality.\u201d That said, I think the color palette is a big mistake. There\u2019s little to suggest I\u2019m looking at my alma mater\u2019s magazine. Red, while attractive in the magazine, isn\u2019t part of the Monmouth brand! Beyond that, where are Monmouth\u2019s symbols? The blue \u201cM\u201d is nowhere to be found. I don\u2019t mind the nameplate, but it\u2019s no great shakes either. So, I\u2019d give the magazine a solid \u201cA\u201d for content but a \u201cC\u201d for emotional connection with the 50,000 of us who once walked Monmouth\u2019s halls. Others, no doubt, will disagree.<\/p>\n
