Title of entry: University of Dayton Magazine

About this entry: Our magazine is elegant and welcoming, packing a large amount of content into pages peppered with beautiful photography and illustration. We entice readers with bright, colorful design, familiar pagination and multiple entry points. Our covers are eclectic in style but always recognizably “Dayton.” With the April launch of the public phase of the University’s first comprehensive campaign in 20 years, the magazine’s mission to engage, entertain and educate is even more important. We have heard that the work we are doing is making a difference. Our audience reads, learns and acts as a result of receiving UD Magazine. In our annual reader surveys, 75% or more of our readers say our layout, covers, content and photography are “excellent.” UD Magazine is the top source of information about the University for readers. More than 89% of respondents say reading the magazine has led them to an action such as donating to UD or recommending UD to a future student. The “Food For Flyers” feature about food insecurity on campus resulted in more than $21,000 in gifts to the food pantry.
