Analysis of two college magazine contents pages (Grimsby Institute magazine)

Again I am going to analyse the Grimsby Institute magazine but this time looking at the contents page to see if this can help me make my magazine look better. Here is a link to the college magazine: http://www.grimsby.ac.uk/documents/GX_mag/GX1.pdf
From reviewing this contents page it shows to me that they have kept a constant style from the front cover to the contents page. The creator of this magazine, has really put a lot of effort in to this page and thought about key devices. They have used the same colours at the bottom of the magazine, but made the border around the contents page pink, which makes it stand out from the rest of the page. They have used bold colours to make the headlines stand out and just a simple black colour for the page numbers to stand out. They have used images what are related to the stories on the side and connect well with one another. I like the text at the bottom about the magazines content and who it is aimed at, as some magazines like that what you buy. The only thing I don't like about the contents page is the image at the top of the contents page behind the writing. This is because you can only see half of the image because it is blocked by the writing.
