Logo guidelines
Consistent use of logos, color palettes and typefaces helps to reinforce the university's image and brand standards. This leads to easy identification of publications that represent our campus by our internal and external audiences.
Best efforts should be made to ensure that these guidelines are followed and that brand standards are met.
Electronic files of the UW Tacoma logo are available for staff and faculty to use on the Share drive at S:/Everyone/Logos. Outside partners who need a copy of the logo should contact Marketing & Creative Services.
Use of the logo
