It's BRAINSTORMING time!

OK, I need your help. I’m trying to come up with and decide on an official name for my magazine. I’ve been creating an ongoing list over the past couple days, but know I’m not exactly fantastic at coming up with catchy and relevant titles, key terms, names, etc. I’ve posted my ideas so far below. Let me know if any seem better than others, what stands out, what is a sure negative, and ANY OF YOUR OWN IDEAS! Remember, this is pure brainstorming so no ideas are bad (as you can see from my list :P)

Here’s some basic information about the magazine.

Audience: High school juniors and seniors preparing for graduation

Appeals to: School counselors, parents, colleges and universities

Purpose: To educate and address concerns about the upcoming transition to the “real world,” whether it be through college, jobs, military, etc. (although mostly college).

Sample topics: What classes to take in high school; making yourself stand out to admissions; how to have a great campus visit; finding the right college for you; how and why to participate in serving-learning/study abroad; preparing for the SAT/ACT; how to save money in college; staying in contact with high school friends; ways to make your college transition go smoothly….

The idea is to create something fun and informative that students will want to read and find helpful. At the same time, parents and school counselors will see the benefit and recommend the magazine or even use it themselves. The title doesn't necessarily have to directly "tie in" like some (OK most) of my ideas do. But something that's catchy and that can help us create a great product!

Those are the basics….tell me what you think!
