Both award-winning pieces were designed for college admission and recruitment purposes, and the team said these pieces were rewarding to create. “We work very closely with the admissions office, and it is our goal for the tangible pieces to represent the hands-on learning experience that takes place every day at Culver-Stockton College,” Alyssa Hummel, Director of Communications and Marketing, said. “We are incredibly proud of these awards because they represent a team approach to marketing collateral that is created in-house. We look forward to further developing the outstanding marketing efforts that represent C-SC!”

The marketing team at C-SC is led by Alyssa Hummel, with creative design provided by Cheyenne Blackorby ’17, Senior Multimedia Designer, and Jayla Heindselman, Graphic Designer. Dr. Kim Gaither, Vice President of Enrollment Management, oversees the staff.
