University Marks

Primary Institutional Identity Marks

Logo Download Page Login required

Any of these three marks, when used and sized appropriately for print and electronic applications, is an acceptable selection as a Primary Identity Mark. The University Marks are set in the typeface Charlotte.


1. Preferred Option 2. Secondary Option 3. Wordmark
Preferred Logo Option Secondary Logo Option Wordmark

The Phoenix Emblem above the Wordmark is the preferred choice when medium, space and design permit.

The Phoenix Emblem to the left of the Wordmark is an alternative when medium, space and design are not conducive to using option 1 (left).

The two-line Wordmark without the Phoenix Emblem is acceptable as the Primary Identity Mark when neither of the two more preferred options above are feasible or appropriate.

Acceptable Variations

While the marks on the previous page are preferred, in recognition of constraints by medium, space and design, the following marks are also permissible.

Outlined Phoenix Emblem

Outlined Phoenix Emblem Variation Outlined Phoenix Emblem should be stacked only

A version of the Primary Identity Mark is available with the Phoenix Emblem rendered as an outline in lieu of a solid shape. This option is to be used sparingly when the design or medium is not optimal for a solid shape.

This variation is available only for the vertically stacked and centered Primary Identity Mark. It is not permitted for use with the left-aligned Phoenix Emblem. (Outlining, when coupled with the reduced size, would minimize the Emblem’s visual impact.)

Single-line Wordmark

Single Line WordmarkWhen vertical space does not allow any of the three preferred Primary Identity Mark options to be used, a single-line Wordmark with Phoenix Emblem is available. The Emblem in this variation provides a strong visual emphasis to counter the de-emphasis of the words “Green Bay.”
