Coming into the 2024-25 academic year, Nathan Carmody is eager to return to his role as print director at The Collegian alongside a team of wonderfully talented designers.

Originally from New Jersey, Carmody grew up in a place surrounded by art and design. Eventually, Carmody found himself at Colorado State University pursuing a bachelor of fine arts with a concentration in graphic design and printmaking.

As an artist, Carmody’s work mainly explores ideas of community, time and emotional experiences surrounding culture. Carmody hopes that his art conveys a sense of connectivity, whether that be between himself and the medium or the audience and the ideas.

It was at Colorado State University that Carmody found The Collegian and, along with it, a love for connecting community through the worlds of journalism, print and design. Bringing people together through print and artistic collaboration has been one of the biggest gifts to come from The Collegian, and Carmody is excited to help carry on the legacy of one of the oldest student-run newspapers west of the Mississippi River.

When not in the newsroom, Carmody can be found digging deep into celebrity gossip, curating extensive playlists, surfing Wikipedia or hanging out with his close friends.
