ROOTS:

College magazine is Amanda Nachman’s brain child. Nachman developed the business plan during her senior year entrepreneur class at the University of Maryland. With the advisory help of the university’s Dingman Center for Entrepreneurship, Nachman launched the first issue of College magazine in September 2007 after her May 2007 graduation. The first issue of the magazine was distributed solely in College Park. Since 2007, the magazine rapidly expanded its team and distribution. Today, College boasts a team of over eighty student contributors and reaches over 150,000 students. In April 2009, Nachman won first place prize in the University of Maryland’s Cupid's Cup Business Competition sponsored by Kevin Plank, CEO and Chairman of Under Armour.
