Designotes Newsletter
In an effort to communicate better with our alumni, in December 2007 we began sending a monthly electronic newsletter to about 5,000 design alums for whom we have valid e-mail addresses. Called Designotes, this message is sent in both HTML and text-only versions on the second Thursday afternoon of each month. If you have not been receiving this e-newsletter and would like to be added to the list, please let us know! Fill out the alumni feedback form at the Share Your News link at left, or e-mail isucod@iastate.edu and indicate that you would like us to send you the Designotes monthly e-newsletter.
 
We will also publish a four- to eight-page print version of Designotes three times per year (spring, summer, fall). This hard-copy newsletter will contain important highlights from the monthly e-news as well as new information and photos, and will be mailed (US Postal Service) to all College of Design alumni. The first issue (Spring 2008) began arriving in mailboxes the first week of March and is available for download here (.pdf). Let us know what you think!
 
The Summer 2008 issue was mailed the first week of May. 
 
 
Career Management Service
Design Career Services recently joined other campus career services offices in using ISU CMS (Iowa State University Career Management Service) for posting internships, entry-level and professional positions. This password-protected online system has many features that will benefit students, alumni and employers. College of Design alumni can access employment opportunities through ISU CMS by completing the registration form.
 
Alumni can assist current students and fellow alums by encouraging their employers to include the College of Design in recruiting activities such as Career Days, on-campus interviews and employment postings.
 
For more information, contact Margo Hutcheson, mhutches@iastate.edu, or Shellie Hosch, shosch@iastate.edu.
