Environmental Leadership Magazine

A Yale student publication, this magazine seeks to promote and discuss issues of environmental sustainability, and features authors from in and out of the Yale community. Vestal’s designers collaborated on both the graphic design of the magazine and the website, as well as offered environmental consulting on paper selection and printing.

The Independent Press Association, an organization of over 500 publications nationwide, has awarded Yale’s Environmental Leadership Magazine with “Best Independent Campus Publication of the Year with a Budget under $10,000”. The IPA says on their award website:

True to its mission, this gorgeously designed publication has the feel of a collage created from hand-made paper and found or recycled scraps. Though the design may look rough-hewn, the content is anything but. This small zine features moving essays, solid investigative pieces and compelling editorials on a truly diverse array of topics. Though always firmly grounded in its environmental theme, ELM manages to deliver a blend of voices and topics, making it appealing to a wide swath of campus readers.
