since we're not good at graphic design...

This website is run by a graphic design professor at Marietta College. I don't know much (anything actually) about Marietta College or this professor but he has some very helpful information which I think would help us on this project, and in general for that matter. I clicked on the typography class link on the right and found some interesting stuff. Look around for yourself, explore the different class pages.

Wolfling

It's not a man...yet it's not a wolf. It is in fact, The Wolfling. Penned by a bored student then foolishly submitted to an alumni in efforts to secure a job interview, this work represents a low-point in portfolio content. Needless to say the student was oblivious, the alumni furious, and the INDD program both taken-aback and embarrassed.

Now forever secured as a part of Auburn INDD-lore, The Woofling stands (actually kneels) as a humbling reminder of how everyone should have every part of their portfolio professionally reviewed prior to submissions. Friends don't let friends submit The Wolfling.

Witness it, and never, never forget!
