“We have 84 days.”

The pressure was on F&M’s new president, Board of Trustees, and leadership: They needed a campaign name and brand, a case statement, a microsite, and all public collaterals conceived, created, written, designed, photographed, and delivered ahead of one of the most historic weekends in the College’s history. And they had about 3 months to do it.
