Title of Entry: Window Magazine

About this Entry: Window is Western Washington University’s magazine that we send free-of-charge to nearly 130,000 alumni, donors and policy makers. This year we printed two editions (for consideration here) and produced one online-only edition. Our purpose is purely to build community and pride among our alumni – to inform, surprise and delight them -- with stories and photography that illustrate how WWU alumni, faculty and students are making a difference in their communities. While Window is not a fundraising publication, we hope the magazine inspires them to continue to support Western through their philanthropy and by sharing their positive experiences with friends, family, prospective students, and the state Legislature.
