Mascot Selection Steering Committee views graphics
ASU's Mascot Selection Steering Committee met for two hours Friday
with Jamie Skiles of Phoenix Design Works and viewed draft designs
and imagery as part of the next steps in selecting a new mascot.
After viewing Skiles' work, the committee narrowed the concepts for
consideration to imagery that will incorporate a train theme, such
as the A-Train or the Express, the Red Wolves, and the Ridge Riders.
Skiles will continue to explore any possible alternatives. At the
committee’s next scheduled meeting, set for Wednesday, Jan. 30,
Skiles will return with additional design options for consideration
by the group. For more information, see the
NewsPage release.
