Unauthorized use constitutes misrepresentation of the university and may equate to fraud. 2

3 INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION Greetings, Today, we have a variety of tools to communicate with prospective and current students, alumni, faculty and staff, and the public. These tools give us great flexibility, but also increase the potential for mixed messages and an inconsistent visual identity. To avoid these pitfalls, we maintain a set of graphic standards. These standards ensure that Texas A&M University- Kingsville s visual materials project a clear, consistent image that exemplifies our Javelina pride. All departments, colleges, centers, divisions and other official units of Texas A&M University-Kingsville and agencies or vendors who produce work for the institution must adhere to these standards for use of the university logo and other approved graphic elements. To further protect the university s visual image, we have registered our logo and other graphic elements through the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Official components of the institution may NOT create individual logos or graphic elements or alter the official graphic elements. Their usage on promotional items and merchandise must be approved, and items must be produced by officially licensed vendors. More information can be found on the following pages. If you have any questions regarding the official graphic standards, please contact the Office of Marketing and Communications. Steven H. Tallant President TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY-KINGSVILLE Office of Marketing and Communications 700 University Blvd., MSC 114 Kingsville TX (361) These guidelines invalidate and prohibit use of earlier university logos and other graphic symbols. 3

4 OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY MARKS The official university marks are major building blocks of Texas A&M University-Kingsville s brand. A&M-Kingsville is the core brand under which all divisions, schools, departments, offices, programs and units are marketed. The purpose of branding is to be consistent in the visual representation of the university so that all materials have a uniform and recognizable appearance. Therefore, the university marks should be used consistently and correctly in all marketing, branding, advertising, publications, printed materials, web communications and other strategic communications. Our offical marks are registered trademarks and cannot be altered. THE BELL TOWER P6 The Bell Tower logo is the primary symbol of the university and must be used on official units stationery. The logo must be the dominant mark on all publications, websites and other forms of communication for easy recognition. SCREAMING JAVELINA/SPIRIT MARK P8 The Screaming Javelina is the secondary logo for the university. It does not replace the Bell Tower, but may be used on merchandise and promotional items. UNIVERSITY SEAL P12 The university seal is used only for formal academic ceremonies, legal applications, diplomas and official certificates typically issued by the Office of the President. It is not for usage in publicizing, marketing, advertising or branding the university or any university programs or activities. 4

5 OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY MARKS JAVELINA HERITAGE COLLECTION P13 Heritage marks are a link to the university s past. They are a link for alumni and offer a glimpse of our historic past for future generations of Javelinas. To honor our heritage appropriately, these marks are protected.

These marks may not be used on printed collateral or for promotional items by departments, units, divisions or programs. Any usage must be approved and designed by the Office of Marketing and Communications and the Office of the President. ATHLETICS MARK P15 The Javelinas spirit mark is reserved strictly for use by the athletics department. It cannot be used in place of the Texas A&M University-Kingsville logo or in communications representing the university s academic areas, research centers, institutes or student organizations.

10 LOGO FORMATS 10

11 OUR NAME & WORDMARK USE TREATMENT OF THE UNIVERSITY NAME AND ABBREVIATION IN TYPE There will be instances when the university s name is set in type but not used in the logo format. The formal, full name of the university must appear on all legal documents and university print and electronic publications. The Texas A&M University System and Texas A&M University-Kingsville have established standards for how the university s name and acronym are to be displayed in such instances. No exceptions are permitted. The preferred usage, space permitting, is the full name of the university on one line as shown: Texas A&M University-Kingsville There is never any space between the A, the ampersand, and the M in the acronym A&M. When the full name of the university is used, there is no space between the y in university, the hyphen, and the K in Kingsville. Note that the separating element is a hyphen, not a dash. In body copy (the text of a manuscript), the first reference to the university is by the full name: Texas A&M University- Kingsville (using the hyphen as shown). Subsequent references may use Texas A&M-Kingsville or A&M-Kingsville (again with a hyphen). The university name should not be abbreviated as TAMUK in formal publications. OUR NAME IS TRADEMARKED font: Deathe Maach NCV The university name and Javelinas are registered trademarks ( ) and must have the registered trademark symbol. All occurrences on promotional items must have the appropriate symbol. TAMUK The usage of TAMUK is permitted on apparel or promotional items and other merchandise when the full name does not fit easily. It may be used on posters and flyers only if it is part of an official organization name, ex. TAMUK Trumpets. 11

12 UNIVERSITY SEAL USE Use of the Texas A&M University-Kingsville seal is highly restricted. Its use is confined to the following documents: diplomas and certificates evidencing completion of degree requirements and/or courses of study; all transcripts of grades earned for completion of course work; and all contracts and documents that require the signature of the president and/or other responsible university officer which involve legal or financial transactions, if such documents require a seal. Its use in conjunction with the seal of another institution on a diploma in which both institutions grant the degree is permitted. Use of the seal as a design element on pamphlets, brochures, other printed pieces, and on novelty items and wearing apparel is not permitted. Questions regarding use of the seal should be directed to the Office of Marketing and Communications. The Office of the President has final authority for decisions regarding the use of the seal. MINIMUM SIZE 3/4 W x 3/4 H* Note: The seal should be reproduced at a size where it is clearly legible. The seal must be reproduced larger than the minimum size when reproduced in a low-resolution media to maintain design integrity and legibility. AREA OF ISOLATION Allow a reasonable amount of space around the logo, clear of text or other logos, to ensure prominence and high visibility within a design. Use the capital M as a visual guide as shown to the right. DO NOT Use other seals to represent the university. Attempt to recreate the seal. Rearrange, stretch, crop, outline, underline, embellish or alter the logo in any way. 12

13 JAVELINA HERITAGE COLLECTION HERITAGE MARKS Heritage marks are a link to the university s past. They are a link for alumni and offer a glimpse of our historic past for future generations of Javelinas. To honor our heritage appropriately, these marks are protected. Usage is reserved for special events and campaigns that directly link back to the university s proud history. These marks may not be used on printed collateral or for promotional items by departments, units, divisions or programs. Any usage must be approved and designed by the Office of Marketing and Communications and the Office of the President.

These templates should not be altered or manipulated. 9/16 7/16 1/2 1 1/2 INK COLORS Stationery, envelopes and business cards must be printed in the official logo color(s).

20 UNIVERSITY STATIONERY BUSINESS CARDS The university business card includes the logo, the individual s name, job title, telephone and fax number, address and return address, as shown in the sample. Optional information, such as secondary titles, departmental or program names, office addresses and home or cell phone numbers may be included with approval of the Office of Marketing and Communications, provided such information does not clutter the card nor detract from its principal purpose. The white space (area without type) exists to keep the card from looking cluttered and will be maintained. The card s function is to identify the institution, the individual representing it, and provide an easy way of contacting that person. Cards should contain only the most essential information. Degrees and professional certifications may follow the name, space permitting. Only the highest degree obtained will be allowed on the business card. No other logos or graphic symbols will be permitted on the business card. Cards are standard business card size (2 x 3 ½ ) printed on Royal Sundance Fiber Cream 80# Cover. 1/2 1/8 Address Kingsville, TX Office (361) 593-xxxx Fax xxxx name@tamuk.edu NAME title Business Card sample (not actual size) 7/8 3/8 1 1/2 3/16 Envelope sample (not actual size) ENVELOPES Envelopes for correspondence will be printed in the standard No. 10 size as well as a 9 x 12 version for unfolded materials.

21 SIGNAGE Like other forms of communication, Texas A&M-Kingsville signage represents the university to the public. We should, therefore, strive to ensure that the use of logos is correct and consistent. The Bell Tower is the only logo that may be used when representing the university on signage. In addition to the logo, the department or program name may be identified in a line below the logo. Affixing the logo on oddly shaped surfaces may pose a challenge. The Office of Marketing and Communications designers are able to offer solutions. They are, for instance, able to design complex wraps for larger university vehicles. DOOR SIGNAGE VEHICLES 21

22 TAGLINES & SLOGANS JAVELINA NATION #JAVELINANATION JAVELINA PRIDE #JAVELINAPRIDE A&M-Kingsville s approved taglines are Javelina Nation and Javelina Pride.
