A Great Day for Hockey
Seton Hill Alum Creates Designs for Pittsburgh Penguins
Seton Hill graphic design alumnus Michael Rubino created the "It’s A Great Day for Hockey" typographical design that is installed above the player’s stick rack in the Consol Energy Center, the home of the Pittsburgh Penguins. He also designed the All-Time Team mural in the player’s locker room, and various designs for the Center’s media level, strength and conditioning center, and warm-up area. Michael always knew he wanted a career in art. He came to Seton Hill because of its art program, and he graduated in 2007 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in graphic design. While at Seton Hill, he was editor-in-chief of the literary-art magazine Eye Contact, a popular cartoonist and contributing writer for The Setonian, a dedicated blogger, and the founder of the Seton Hill College Republicans. Michael was also active in political campaigns, which led to a graphic design internship with BrabenderCox, a political and commercial marketing firm with offices in Pittsburgh. After graduation the company hired him; he now works full-time in both print and web design.
