Featured Project: Package Design and Advertising
Second-year students are challenged with creating new packaging for a product and then developing advertising to match. Students must be able to not only visualize the package design, but also mock it up to scale.
Below are samples of packaging and related posters created by CC students:
Taylor Burr - graduate of Adams Central HS, Hastings, NE
Katelyn Goecker - graduate of Louisville HS, Louisville, NE
Brandon Henry - graduate of Humboldt HS, Humboldt, KS
Weston Knobloch - graduate of West Lyon Community HS, Inwood, IA

Graduate of the Month
Allison Sojka (Montgomery)
AOS '09
Book Producer and Children's Book Specialist at
Allison Sojka DBA Luminosity Press in Omaha, NE
High School: Millard West HS in Omaha, NE
What does the graduate do? Allison Sojka started her true journey into the magnificent book world when she was 20 years old, in 2008, and has learned so much and come so far in the seven years since!
Sojka works as a contractor in Book Production and Children's Book Specialization, meaning she takes on numerous work roles including, but not limited to: author, editor, illustrator, graphic designer, and social media specialist. She has started to sell classroom sets of the title No Worries Whale (illustrated by Sojka and written by Amanda Gehrke) to elementary schools to be used as a tool for children in lessons of science and creative writing, and she has joined children during the school year and summer school as an Author/Illustrator Visitor and Presenter.
Sojka holds a true love for education, the environment, and the arts. She aspires to use the children's book No Worries Whale in teaching children the importance of protecting the ocean and those who brave it, no matter where on planet earth they live. Other works such as The great mystery of: The Clock that Wouldn't Tick strive to teach children lessons of compassion.
The Rafters: Book One of the Somnambulist Saga and No Worries Whale: A Book of Ocean Poems are among Sojka's first published titles, and she continues forward with a handful of children's books (by various authors) currently in the works, and even more titles waiting on the backburner. Our world contains an endless supply of aspiring authors, and Sojka looks forward to discovering those who seek her services and helping to bring their written manuscripts to life in final book form!
Clients: Sojka works with authors including, but not limited to, Amanda Gehrke (No Worries Whale: A Book of Ocean Poems) and Sherrel W. Lawhon (The great Mystery of: The Clock that Wouldn't Tick).
