As writers, designers, photographers, web developers and overall brand ambassadors, all of us are called upon to go forth and help share our brand. Brand assets are the creative tools, visual elements and written words that enhance our image and bring the University of Nebraska brand to life. They include our logo, typefaces, color, voice, and visual style.

Athletics Brand Guide

The Marks
The University Seal is reserved for Trustee, Presidential, ceremonial, or commemorative use. It is not designed for use on commercial or promotional products. Use of the seal on commercial or promotional products must be approved through the Licensing and Branding Department.
™ and ®
Many of The University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s trademarks are registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. If a trademark bears the ®, then it is a federally registered trademark. If a trademark bears the ™, then it is not federally registered but is still a recognized university trademark. Use of the proper trademark designation symbols in connection with the goods and services associated with the university will assist in effectively protecting the rights that the university has developed in its marks.
Be sure to review the University of Nebraska Logo Sheet to confirm proper designations before submitting artwork for approval.
