UIC hosts hundreds of organizations built around students’ diverse interests. Each is unique but all share a connection to the University of Illinois Chicago brand. This connection carries the responsibility of adhering to brand guidelines, which safeguard both the university and its students. The names, wordmarks, logos and images that make up the University of Illinois Chicago brand are legally protected assets. The standards for their use are set by the Office of Strategic Marketing and Communications and supported by the Student Code, which is your guide to being proud brand ambassadors.
Student organizations registered with the Center for Student Involvement are independent and cannot represent themselves as speaking on behalf of the university or being a part of the university.
Policy on student organization use of official university trademarked logo
To maintain the integrity and consistency of the university’s brand, student organizations are not permitted to use the university’s official trademarked logo or lockups. This policy ensures that the university’s identity is not misrepresented, misused or associated with unauthorized activities.
Unauthorized use of the trademarked logo may create confusion regarding official endorsements, sponsorships or affiliations, potentially leading to reputational or legal issues. Student organizations are encouraged to develop their own branding elements or use university-approved alternatives that align with institutional guidelines.
Registered Student Organizations may
- Use UIC colors Fire Engine Red (PMS 199c) and Navy Pier Blue (2758c)
Design their own logo as long as it does not include any University of Illinois Chicago registered trademarks (e.g., circle mark, wordmark)
Registered Student Organizations may NOT
- Use the University of Illinois Chicago logo.
- Use the circle mark as part of their logo
- Use the UIC Athletics marks
Artwork
Organizations can create their own artwork as long as it does not replicate or resemble protected university marks. They can also create and use illustrations and drawings of UIC buildings and landmarks (e.g., the Academic and Residential Complex). However, organizations may not use artwork featuring or portraying UIC people (alums, faculty, etc.) or any copyrighted materials or objects on campus (e.g., artwork on display).
