Most individual departments, offices, and initiatives do not have a custom logo. In most instances, the primary logo or department/school sublogos best support CCMs brand awareness goals. In some situations, CCM supports the development of identity graphics to be used in conjunction with the primary logo.  

The primary logo is the preferred logo version and must be present on all external-audience facing College communications. This includes, but is not limited to, brochures, stationery, business cards, advertisements, signage, and the College website.

Thoughtful and considerate use of Î÷¹ÏÊÓƵ’s logo is appreciated:

• Never manipulate the logo in any way.
• Do not create secondary (sub) logos to represent a school, college, center, institute, program, or event.
• You must not…
  • Add elements to the logo
  • Draw or retype the logo
  • Change the proportion of the logo
  • Change the spacing between the individual elements or characters
  • Change the arrangement of the elements
  • Place the logo at an angle other than horizontal or vertical
  • Change the color of the logo to a non-brand color

Secondary logos are important for brand recognition and consistency.

To keep the Î÷¹ÏÊÓƵ brand fresh and vibrant, a larger palette of colors—based largely in blues and greens with a few accent tones—has been created. These colors should be used to complement our core colors, and should not replace them.

The colors in our expanded and accent palettes may be used in various combinations, depending on the purpose and audience of each communications piece.

Use of these colors should evoke a sense of hierarchy, balance, and harmony. While our palettes are flexible, colors outside our core palettes should be used only with approval from the Office of Communications & Marketing.
