College Communications
Graphic Identity
College Communications oversees the implementation of the graphic identity, and helps users at Haverford and those working on behalf of the College to use the graphic identity appropriately and effectively.
Our Graphic Identity Standards and Guidelines establishes rules of usage and scale, specifies colors, and provides application examples for the development of printed and electronic materials. A well-managed graphic identity will help Haverford achieve its larger goal of strengthening the College’s reputation and prominence nationally and internationally through standardized usage of these guidelines.
