Design: English Scholars Logo

Moreover, I later sent the logo to the director of the program for feedback, and after removing the word "program" from the logo and adjusting the arch of the text, I designed the completed logo, featured below.

We considered an additional eight poems and made suggestions on which to include in the chapbook. We also looked at the order and placement of the poems and g...
