Mindful branding: Using university & college logos successfully Virtual Winter School 2013 Presented by Cindy Allen Office of Communications and Technology Services Why brand? Every day, thousands of organizations compete fiercely for our attention—each trying to stand out from the crowd. Why brand? Some brands are so strong, they don’t need words. Why brand? A well-designed, consistently applied visual identity program is a proven means of creating an easily recognized and remembered brand for any institution. Such programs exist to: n Communicate the character and reputation of an institution. n Unify the communications of an organization. Why brand? One cornerstone of any visual identity program and a key to successful branding is an institution’s logo (also know as a mark). University logos and policies The web site for university logos and policies is http://styleguide.uga.edu/index.php?/entries/logo_ guide_and_downloads/ University logos and policies The web site for university logos and policies is http://styleguide.uga.edu/index.php?/entries/logo_ guide_and_downloads/ University logos and policies For more information on university logos and policies contact: Alison Huff, Director of Publications UGA Public Affairs 706-542-8163 arhuff@uga.edu CAES and Extension logos Just as a logo is the cornerstone of a well-crafted identity program, the university’s arch is the cornerstone of both our college logo and the Extension logo. The arch along with the use of the university’s official typeface combine to create both of these logos. The CAES and Extension logos The official font family of the university is ITC Galliard.

EPS vs. JPEG—what’s the difference? Logo file formats: EPS n Industry standard file format for commercial printing (Encapsulated Postscript) nVector-based file nInfinitely scalable nTransparent background Logo file formats: EPS Logo file formats: JPEG n File format for data compression developed by Joint Photographic Experts Group nPixel-based file nNot infinitely scalable (degrades when enlarged) nNo transparent background Logo File Formats: JPEG File Formats: So, which should I use? Begin with the end in Mind. EPS Files nThe industry standard for art/graphic files. nAlways, always supply to vendors (for anything commercially printed like brochures, posters, etc. or for promotional items like cups, t-shirts, etc.). nEPS files will work in Microsoft Word, PowerPoint and all popular page layout and word processing programs. File Formats: So, which should I use? Begin with the end in Mind. Jpeg Files nThe industry standard for photographic files. nUse for the Web. (Please note that the JPEG files on the logo site are high-resolution files.) nUse in documents printed with non-postscript printers (i.e.: inkjet printers and personal desktop printers). File Formats: Common Concerns I can’t open an eps file… You’re not supposed to. nEPS files can generally NOT be opened for viewing. nInstead, save it to a place on your computer where you will be able to find it. nThen, open your document and use the “insert picture” or “place” command to place the logo in your document. File Formats: Common Concerns When I print my document, The eps file looks terrible… Your Printer is not A Postscript Printer. nIf you are producing the final output and you have an inkjet or other non-postscript printer, use a hi-res jpeg. File Formats In short… Use the EPS file format of the logos unless… n Using the logo on the Web. n Producing something on your own ink jet (non-postscript) printer. Downloading logos Logo usage: Friendly design tips n College and university logos must always be reproduced from authorized artwork. n The CAES 3-line logo is the preferred version of the logo. Logo usage: Friendly design tips n Flush-left versions of the CAES logo give more flexibility to layout/design. (Once something is centered, the tendency is to center everything, leading to a less professional layout.) Logo usage: Friendly design tips n Centered versions of the logo should be reserved for treatments like formal invitations and awards. Logo usage: Friendly design tips Ask “Who is this for, and what is it’s purpose?” n Audience, purpose and content should drive the design of all materials. Form follows function. n The college’s logos should serve as a badge identifying the university/college/Extension, not as the primary visual focus.

Prisoners grow a garden of their own Inmates at the Thomas County Prison in Thomasville, Ga., grow their own food as part of a pilot project designed to teach them new skills and save the prison money. The prison was spending $1,000 or more buying produce each week before University of Georgia Cooperative Extension agent R.J. Byrne worked to help turn a portion of the prison’s land into a fruit and vegetable garden. Under Byrne’s guidance, inmates converted an acre of weeds into a plot teeming with corn, cucumbers, tomatoes, okra, beans and watermelons. Even with startup costs for seed, transplants and fertilizer, he estimates the prison will save several thousand dollars this year. YOUR LINK TO LOCAL FOODS Today, more than 200 students meet after school twice a week to learn about growing food. Finding hope in a garden A University of Georgia Cooperative Extension agent stepped in to help and built a garden of hope for residents at the Bridges of Hope residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation center. Johnny Whiddon, UGA Cooperative Extension agent in Brooks County, helps residents find food, skills and hope by helping to rebuild their small therapy garden, which started disappearing three years ago due to some hungry insects.

Through our research, teaching and extension programs we help Georgia farmers produce food sustainably and safely for all Georgians.” ~ J. Scott Angle, Dean, UGA College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences Community-grown in Henry County UGA Master Gardeners lend expertise Community gardens in Henry County give residents space to grow vegetables and provide food for the hungry. UGA Master Gardeners organized six gardens in the county where community members can request a plot to grow vegetables; two of those gardens produce food exclusively for the local food pantry. n Across the state, UGA-trained Master Gardeners work with communities and in schools to develop gardens. In 2009, 13,982 gardeners participated in community gardening projects. n Working with UGA Master Gardeners and through the Atlanta Urban Gardening Program, Fulton County Extension agent Bobby Wilson helped start 225 community gardens in Dekalb and Fulton counties. Food from gardens in the program help feed 300 homeless people at the Peachtree and Pine Shelter every month. Many of the community gardens also donate food to the Atlanta Community Food Bank through the Plant a Row for the Hungry program.

For more information about community gardens, call your local UGA Extension agent at 1-800-ASK-UGA1. School garden serves learning and lunch In Putnam County, both 4-H and a Junior Master Gardener Program support a growing school garden program that began in 2003 with a single garden. “We saw two things going on in our schools. “[First,] the students had little to no knowledge of agricultural activity in the state and no knowledge of how food was produced and brought to the table. [Second,] these kids lacked basic horticultural skills that I had at that age from hanging out with [my] parents and grandparents,” said Keith Fielder, UGA Cooperative Extension coordinator in Putnam County. Master Gardeners designed and built a U-shaped raised garden bed and, with the help of retired teachers, wrote classroom lesson plans. “We came into schools through 4-H and started teaching about the water cycle and 4 UGA College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences delivering environmental programs on resource use,” he said. Today, more than 200 students meet after school twice a week to learn in several garden locations and greenhouses. The students grow just about every Georgia crop, except cotton and tobacco. “We talk about the importance of the commodities to Georgia’s economy,” Fielder said. “And we grow watermelons for the watermelon contest.” Fielder also incorporates healthy eating lessons into the program. Produce from the garden is given to the lunchroom to be included in the school menu.
