Echoes changing to a magazine format beginning next year


Look for a change in your Echoes. This publication will be switching from a tabloid to a magazine next year.

The content will be similar, but how it is presented will be upgraded through enhanced graphics and photography.

“Our readership surveys show that our readers like our content,” said Editor Bryan Taylor. “They are pleased with the writing style and the mix of articles, both features and news. The magazine will allow us to enhance that editorial focus.”

“We also will enhance our image as a college,” Taylor said. “We want a publication befitting of our growing reputation as a leader in engineering, science and mathematics education. We want our readers to pass Echoes on to others.”

The magazine’s mission statement reads as follows: “The mission of Rose-Hulman Echoes is to maintain and increase the communication between the Institute and its various constituencies. Echoes does this by informing alumni, parents, business leaders, engineering educators and friends about happenings in the life of the Rose-Hulman community. This includes campus developments, educational trends, alumni events, and news and features about alumni, faculty and student achievement, personally and professionally. Thereby, the magazine strengthens a mutually beneficial relationship between the college and its constituents.”
