In December 2008, Hearst ended the print publication of CosmoGirl, and Schulz was then moved to a position at the company working on special projects.[4] Schulz at one time had the title editorial brand director of Cosmopolitan and managed such projects as Cosmo Books and a Cosmopolitan clothing line at JCPenney.[2]
