Jessica,
For the past few years our graduate students have been responsible for
the binding of their theses. Some choose to bind them themselves, and
others go to outside sources. One of those outside sources which I feel
does a very professional looking binding is Blurb.com. The cover boards
come through with a full color image the student has selected, making them
visually attractive and they have held up very well.
Best,
Ellie
