Formal and informal lockups have been created for all colleges and are available for download and immediate use.

In most cases, the college-level lockup or the 美高梅官网 logo alone will be the most appropriate mark for all academic communication.

Colleges are free to allow 鈥� or not allow 鈥� the use of departmental or smaller unit lockups. All such lockups must be approved by the appropriate college dean. It is strongly recommended that colleges seek guidance from their internal communications staff and/or the Brand Review Committee prior to proposing smaller unit lockups.

Note: Acronyms are permitted for college-level lockups.

The use of lockups is typically discouraged for non-academic units. In most cases, the 美高梅官网 logo alone will be the most appropriate mark. With that said, here are a few helpful questions to consider when determining whether or not a lockup is warranted:

• Is it meaningful and necessary to the target audience? How? Why?
• Can identifying or acknowledging a particular service or program be accomplished through messaging?
• What is gained 鈥� or lost 鈥� with a lockup over the use of the 美高梅官网 logo alone?
• Does the unit have a retail or commercial mission?

Divisions and larger, umbrella units are free to allow 鈥� or not allow听鈥� the development and use of lockups, both at the division and smaller unit level. All non-academic lockups must be approved by the appropriate division head, VP or leadership team. In addition, it is strongly recommended that non-academic units seek guidance from the Brand Review Committee prior to proposing a unit lockup.

Note: To ensure clarity for external audiences, acronyms are not permitted for non-academic unit lockups.
