Miller-McCune wants a new name

Miller-McCune magazine up in Santa Barbara is finally going to change its name — and who can disagree with that. New editor Maria Streshinsky, recently the managing editor at the Atlantic, explains. She'd also like your ideas on a new title.

I’ve been at Miller-McCune as editor-in-chief for almost eight weeks, and in that time we have been buzzing with ideas for our future: What will the next iteration of our print magazine look like when we redesign next spring? What will this website look like, and what new features will it have? And, most importantly, what exactly is a New-Name-to-Come story?

We want to give you stories that you never knew you wanted to read. These stories will be a research-based, data-driven conduit to primary sources at universities, think tanks, to people in the middle of policy decisions, all in search of solutions to some of the world’s most vexing problems. We aim to achieve that without pomposity and will strive not to be overly sober. We aim, after all, to turn some ideas on their heads.
