I would certainly hope a more diverse batch of folks to be featured in these essays could be found. What's been written about lately is white, well to do, of privilege. Where is the diversity of youth, age, color, disability, sex status and those working above and below society norms?

THE COOPER UNION
The logo design for The Cooper Union coincided with the schools 150th anniversary and Cooper Union alumnus, Stephen Doyle (A’78) took on the assignment with his design firm as a pro bono contribution to the school. Cooper Union’s president Dr. Campbell said “a new logo should transcend history, tradition and culture, and embrace the future.” The new logo does just that! It also denotes Cooper Union’s legacy and will help preserve Cooper’s full-tuition scholarships so that a more talented and diverse student body will continue to be able to receive an education of the first rank based on merit.
Thank you Debbie and Stephen.
