Compare
Graduation Days with this Victorian comparative geography image.
I’m not sure the diploma motif of “Graduation Days” works, since
there’s nothing on a a diploma that has vertical lines like that. The
density of information takes a while to absorb, but other than the pie
chart seal, there’s nothing particularly interesting to look at in the
image itself, to keep our attention while we try to figure out what
information we’re seeing.
And, what discussion of infographics would be complete without referring to The Onion on USA Today Redesign?
