College Magazine Titles

In our groups we were set the task of coming up with and comparing prospective titles for ours college magazines. We wanted to choose a title that would appeal to our target audience of college students. Therefore it needed to be snappy and interesting whilst still fulfilling the needs of a college magazine title.

Richmond Weekly
Positive - "Sounds formal and like a magazine" "It's easy to remember".
 Negative - "Sounds too much like a newspaper, and the "Richmond" makes it boring"
The title Richmond weekly tells the audience where the magazine is from and what sort of information they will be able to read about in the magazine.

Aim High
Positive - "It's short and catchy." "It relates to school" "It connotes that you should Aim High"
The title aim high is catchy and trendy whilst still meeting the base need of appeal to the College student target audience.

The Richmond Rambler
Positive - "It has good use of alliteration" "It suggests it's about the gossip around Richmond, which makes it interesting"
Negative - "It's boring and sounds much too like a newspaper" "It is half stolen from another magazine"
The Richmond Rambler connotes that the magazine may have gossip or "ramblings" however this could be seen in a negative way as it suggest that the "ramblings" are uninteresting and unrelated to a college magazine.
