Monmouth
Monmouth University hired Dog Ear to lead a full redesign of its publication in order to increase readership and bring it in line with an evolving university. The current editor had worked with Dog Ear to overhaul TCNJ magazine—the 2017 Sibley winner—when he was an editor at The College of New Jersey, and he reached out to Dog Ear in his new position at Monmouth. The redesign was launched in the spring of 2017, and Dog Ear has continued its work as designer and art director for all subsequent issues of Monmouth.
“I've worked with Dog Ear to redesign magazines at Monmouth University and TCNJ. For both projects, their creative work was fresh and original and their editorial recommendations perfectly captured the spirit of two distinct institutions. They continue to art direct and design our magazine at Monmouth, and they're a joy to work with. I highly recommend them.”
