The graphic designer credited with creating Nike's famous Swoosh logo was a young design student with limited experience. The story shows that you don't necessarily need to have years of design experience to come up with an enduring logo.

As a graphic design student, you might sometimes feel that your hard work won't create a major global impact. Many graphic design courses use the Nike Swoosh as an example of an effective, well-known, corporate icon. In fact, the Swoosh was created by Carolyn Davidson, a graphic design student at Portland State University.

" Setting an example is not the main means of influencing others; it is the only means. " - Albert Einstien

"Some people create with words, or with music, or with a brush and paints. I like to make something beautiful when I run. I like to make people stop and say, 'I've never seen anyone run like that before.' It's more then just a race, it's a style. It's doing something better than anyone else. It's being creative." - Prefontaine
