I like it. I'm not sure why, but the spacing seems of. Those a's that are circles with triangles are also used A LOT lately, but that's not to say they should'nt be used any more.

Thanks for your feedback. The spacing irregularity is due mostly to the "c." Carl Jung probably has a thing or two to say about "group think" with regard to convergence in Design. That said, I created these glyphs a long while back and felt their forms responded well to the project brief and theme of the conference. So I resurrected them as one of the comps (not my favorite) for the client. Of course, the client chose this one. It's partnered with a lowercase "mid-america college art association" line of copy that resides under the "m." It helps to create a beautifully long line serving as a transition into the more contemporary/compact "macaa." However, that wouldn't fit well in Logopond's rather squarish template. :)

I think you're right about it being the C. And I wouldn't mind seeing it with the text under the M. When I first saw it, my first thought was that'd be a great place for some text.
