The sweet smell of success came not only from the food being served in Treadaway Hall but also from four students who won awards for their graphic design final projects at the first annual Taste of StMU magazine launch on Dec. 1, 2010.

Volunteer judges who work in the graphic design field selected Denice Hernandez and Sarah Mills (see magazine) as the winners of the “Professionals’ Choice” awards. Their respective “chefs” also received aprons imprinted with the Taste of StMU logo. From among the 20 alumni, faculty, staff and Marianists who attended this unique event, they voted Oscar Maguregui and Megan Foster as winners of the “People’s Choice” awards.

The magazine launch party gave graphic design students the opportunity to showcase what they have learned throughout the semester by editing and creating their own 20-page edition of Taste of StMU magazine, complete with ads, photographs and stories. The chefs featured in their magazines provided the food for the event.

On the menu were rice, tropical pineapple cupcakes with citrus cream frosting, shrimp scampi, chicken salad, crusted baked chicken, pizza, arroz con pollo, honey barbecue chicken sandwich, eggrolls, lasagna, brisket, Spanish rice, tortilla soup, charro beans, oatmeal cookies, apple pie, fruit smoothies, chili and sushi.
