  • 2010 AEJMC Logo Competition
    After much discussion during the Denver Conference, the AEJMC Board did not select a winner in the recent logo competition. It was a unanimous decision. During the conference, about 900 attendees (of the 1,700 paid attendees) voted for their favorite from six semi-finalists, and narrowed the pool down to two finalists. Based on the votes, each finalist received about 22% of the total vote.The Board was looking for a logo that reflected the association’s unique mission and reach within the academy. The group expected a design that would look modern and exciting, yet still capture our many facets of journalism and mass communication. Neither logo met that expectation. The association created a 100th anniversary logo that was used during our centennial year in 2012. The logo was adapted as the association’s logo after the centennial year.
