Some research on a similar look and feels from other typefaces are below.

Thesis Information Updates

Committee Group The committee group is mostly the same. I kept a majority of them on still, since a large part of my committee were language experts. Keeping the language experts one will still help, so I can have a better understanding of how things act and direct contacts for questions. I have also added one expert, which is Kelsey Elder, who works for the Rhode Island School of Design. I brought Kelsey in to help has a typography expert. He teaches courses and is knowledgable on type design. So, with me entering the production phase he will be a great help. Calendar The change is pushing the information from January onwards up by a month, this won't affect the planning much since the final month of work was mainly planned to be filler work and refinement work.
