Brandeis University Switches to Environmental Paper

Though Brandeis University is one of the youngest private research universities in the United States, the school has received countless awards and recognitions for academic excellence since its founding in 1948. One of the university’s most recent awards was for the re-design of their undergraduate admissions mini viewbook.

During the design of the latest undergraduate admissions mini viewbook, which received a certificate of excellence from the University and College Designers Association, Brandeis University’s Design Director Deborah Wieder re-designed the entire collection of undergraduate and graduate admissions materials. Besides giving them a fresh look and new approach, Wieder decided to switch to a more environmentally friendly paper.

All of the new Brandeis undergraduate and graduate admission material is printed on Mohawk Via, which is manufactured with 100% windpower and contains postconsumer waste material.
