Using EMU's Identity Standards

Download the Identity Standards Guide

The “logo cops” have retired. The Division of Communications no longer requires university units to share their communications (web, ads, publications) for review and approval. We will provide assistance and consultation upon your request. At a minimum, all employees and vendors are expected to adhere to the university’s official identity system.

Identity standards
The identity system includes four main elements: logos, colors, typefaces and grid. The identity standards guide can be downloaded here: www.emich.edu/marcomm/EMU_ID_Standards.pdf

EMU logos
General University and athletic logos are available online at emich.edu/logos. For unit logos (those with your unit/departmental name in the logo), please check the departmental logo download site. If your logo is not there, contact Rhonda DeLong at webcomm@emich.edu.

Colors
University colors are green (PMS 349) and white. Black may also be used. There are no additional accent colors for university publications and communications.

Fonts/typefaces
EMU’s official typefaces are Myriad Pro and Arno Pro. These should be used in all external communications. Additional accent typefaces, such as a script headline, are allowed, depending on the context. Your computer should have Myriad Pro as part of your standard font set. If you need a copy of Arno Pro, contact Sheilah Larnhart at slarnhar@emich.edu.
