Guidelines for Using the Primary Logo

The “T” and the words “Truman State University” make up the University logo.

The “T” Logo should never be used as a stand-alone identity element on any marketing material or piece of collateral.
The “T” should not be used as part of a word to replace an existing “t” in the word.
To properly communicate the Truman brand, the “T” must always be supported by an additional identity element, such as our Primary Logo or Wordmark, or accompanied by “Truman State University.”

The minimum size required for the Truman Primary Logo:

Embroidery and merchandise applications: Truman Primary Logo should be reduced no smaller than 2” high.

The clear space around the Primary Logo shown here can be determined by taking the width of the “T” in “TRUMAN” and using it to create a border around the mark. This rule applies to all marks within the Truman Identity System.
