Launch Rewards Outstanding UNT Students with Scholarships
By: David | Published: 05/21/10

The University of North Texas held its 2010 Communication Design Senior Graduation Event in Dallas, on May 14, at the Hayworth Showroom in the Republic Center. Over 200 friends, family members, and faculty came to celebrate the 28 graduating CommDesign seniors.

As part of the celebration, Launch Agency awarded $1,000 scholarships to two students with outstanding junior portfolios in art direction and design. This year, the Outstanding Achievement Scholarship in Design went to Max Barkhatou. The Outstanding Achievement Scholarship for Art Direction went to Madison McDaniel. Congratulations to Madison and Max on their outstanding work!

Launch has awarded scholarships to outstanding UNT junior designers and art directors since 2007. Launch principal/creative director, David Wilgus, himself a UNT graduate, knows first-hand the extraordinary talent in the CommDesign program.

Launch Endows Scholarships for Future Creative Stars
By: Kevin | Published: 06/05/09

Each year, to inspire and reward creative excellence at the University of North Texas’ College of Visual Arts & Design, Launch Agency awards two student scholarships. After the UNT faculty narrowed the field to eight outstanding juniors, Launch’s very own UNT alumni — David Wilgus (Launch Principal, Creative Director) and Reuben Miller (Creative Service) — carefully reviewed the portfolios and selected this year’s winners.

“This is the third year of our involvement,” informed Wilgus. “UNT has a great program. We are excited to recognize and assist some of the terrific students in Visual Arts & Design.”

Graphic design student, Daniel Fuhrer, and Jason Perez, an art direction student, will each receive $1,000 scholarships. Both exhibited strong conceptual thinking and brought their ideas to life with impressive execution.
