COLLEGE OF ARTS & SCIENCES GRAPHIC & TRADEMARK STANDARDS

Preface: These standards are intended for use as a supplement to the overall Valparaiso University Graphics Standards Guidelines. The primary application of these standards is to the design and production of any College of Arts & Sciences logo apparel and products (stationery and business card standards are found here.)  Secondarily, these standards also state the appropriate manner in which the Valparaiso University College of Arts & Sciences may be identified and referenced.

  1. Generally, only images and trademarks outlined in the Valparaiso University Graphic Standards Guidelines are acceptable.  These images and wordmarks may be made specific to the College of Arts & Sciences by including "College of Arts & Sciences" below the image/logo/seal in acceptable font and format (see, e.g., the two-color "Valpo-V" design for MBA in the manual).
  2. The official name, identity, and wordmark is "Valparaiso University College of Arts & Sciences.
  3. A non-exclusive list of unacceptable graphics and wordmarks:
    1. VUCoAS
    2. Any reference that omits a designation for university (e.g., Valparaiso College of Arts & Sciences)
    3. Any other unofficial mark, generic mark, or abridgement of approved marks
  4. For specific College of Arts & Sciences design approvals and questions, contact Dean Jon Kilpinen at 219-464-5314 or Director of Communications, Heather Taylor, at heather.taylor@valpo.edu.
