Logos, Photos, Templates, Colors, Fonts

Given the competitive environment of higher education, it is essential that Albany Law School present a single, succinct, and compelling story. To accomplish this we must create and maintain a single brand identity.

Albany Law School's brand defines who we are and what we do. It presents our voice to the world and helps us achieve our mission and vision. And your assistance is needed so we can maintain a clear, unified brand identity.

On these pages, you will find guidelines that outline our visual brand identity. These guidelines address the use of the law school's logos, colors, fonts, and seal.

All departments, centers, programs, and units are expected to implement these visual identity guidelines in all future communications projects. When existing printed materials are depleted, they should be replaced with new materials designed according to these guidelines.

We appreciate your cooperation in using these guidelines to embrace and promote a unified law school identity. After all, our brand is one of our most important assets!
