Willamette University
Founded in 1842, Willamette University is the oldest university in the Western United States, and its commitment to turning big ideas into action hasn’t changed. With students drawn from 43 states and 19 countries, Willamette’s admissions team needed a recruitment piece as distinctive as the school itself.
Scout Books partnered with Willamette to create a custom notebook that puts the university’s story directly in the hands of prospective students. Branded in cardinal and gold, the notebook gives recruits something tangible to take home from campus visits: a place to capture their thoughts, questions, and first impressions of a school that has been shaping Pacific Northwest leaders for over 180 years.
Portland Community College
Founded in 1961, PCC has grown into the largest post-secondary institution in Oregon, serving more than 50,000 students across four campuses and eight centers throughout the Portland metro area.
With a student body as diverse as the city it calls home, PCC turned to Scout Books to create a custom pocket notebook that brings its community together. From club meetings to campus events to classroom note-taking, the notebook gives PCC students a shared, tangible connection to their campus and to each other. Printed on 100% recycled paper and built to go wherever students go, it is a small but meaningful expression of what PCC has always done best: making education feel accessible, welcoming, and rooted in the community.
Future Forests
Forests play an important role in climate change and we want to “Plant our Part”. Scout Books is partnering with the National Forest Foundation to plant 1 tree for every single order we receive.
