The initial building was Dean Hall and the first entering class had an enrollment of 44 students — 14 men and 30 women. In a society where change is constant and dramatic, Dean College is committed to graduating students who are well-prepared for the world of work or further collegiate study. Since the initial founding, Dean has evolved from the academy model to a junior college in 1957 and in 1994 to the Dean College students know today. During this evolution, Dean’s academic program has grown, now offering 15 associate degrees and seven bachelor’s degrees. Dance was the first Bachelor of Arts degree offering, added to the curriculum in 2000, followed by a B.A. degree in Arts and Entertainment Management in 2007. Dean College introduced its newest baccalaureate programs in 2010 with B.A. degrees in Theatre, Liberal Arts and Studies, and a B.S. in Business. Dean graduates will continue to demonstrate strong community and social responsibility, high standards of personal integrity and the ability to thrive in a global environment. The campus has also expanded exponentially to support a current enrollment of nearly 1,000 full-time and 500 part-time students. The current 100-acre campus includes a Library Learning Commons, 10 residential halls and homes, a vibrant Campus Center, a state-of-the-art Technology and Science Center, and the new Dining and Performing Arts Center. Mission Dean College, a private, residential college fostering academic and personal success, offers a variety of associate degree programs, transfer preparation for four-year institutions and baccalaureate degrees. Dean provides its students with quality teaching, personalized academic support, leadership and professional development opportunities that promote a lifetime of learning and achievement. Distinguishing Characteristics 1. Unmatched support, both academically and socially, tailored to each student’s individual needs. 2. S afe and protective environment on a 100-acre private, residential campus located in historic Franklin. 3. A robust academic platform upon which to achieve success for each and every student. 4. T he Dean Difference: We are with our students every step of the way on their journey toward a college degree, working with them as full partners in their education. Positioning Statement At Dean, we embrace students from many different backgrounds and a variety of learning styles. We offer the individualized support necessary to ensure academic and personal success for each and every student. That is The Dean Difference. FOUNDATION OF THE DEAN BRAND | DEAN COLLEGE 10 Telling the Brand Story Brand Position On the crowded landscape of higher education today, Dean College occupies a special and important position. We are a four-year institution of higher education that offers both associate and bachelor’s degrees. Our major focus is on the first two years of our students’ educational journeys during which we prepare them to reach their highest ambitions. While some students’ aspirations take them beyond Dean to complete their bachelor’s degrees, others accomplish the same right here. From a nationally acclaimed one-of-a-kind dance program to baccalaureate degree programs in Business, Liberal Arts, and Arts and Entertainment Management, Dean College has something for all students. We have been advising, inspiring and empowering young women and men for generations, guiding them along their personal pathways and pointing them on the way to career and personal success and satisfaction. Brand Chapters The remarkable growth that so many of our students undergo is achieved in a learning environment that is built around five main pillars: • An Individualized Education • Complete and Classic • Ever Empowering • Best of Both • Coming Together With these strengths in place, Dean College looks forward to a new era of growth and purpose — a small liberal arts college that takes students wherever they want to go. TELLING THE BRAND STORY | DEAN COLLEGE 11 An Individualized Education Too many colleges and universities today offer a one-size-fits-all education. At Dean College, our students go through a remarkable process of transformation, developing a love for learning that derives from a highly individualized educational program that is based on distinct needs and goals. For almost 150 years, we have provided our students with the skills and confidence to achieve their educational aspirations. For many, this begins with an associate degree in one of our 15 subject areas. From business to communications, criminal justice to dance, early childhood education to sport/fitness studies, our associate degree programs provide far-ranging and valuable opportunities for exploration and preparation for further study. Some who receive their associate degree choose to stay at Dean and commence their baccalaureate studies, while others may choose to transfer to a different four-year college. We can boast of an unparalleled transfer acceptance rate of 98 percent — sterling validation that our individualized education, based on principles of academic rigor, powerfully prepares students for their next chapter, wherever that may take them. Those students who choose to stay on for the full four years at Dean develop their skills and talents in strong programs that prepare them for the demands of the real world. Our dance students achieve a level of professionalism that enables them to make inroads in this challenging field, even as undergraduates. Our theatre and arts management majors work with faculty members who are industry professionals and who can show them the ropes from Day One. Our business majors get the kind of solid foundation in today’s current business practices that enables them to secure excellent positions upon graduation. And more and more of our students are discovering Dean’s new baccalaureate degrees in Liberal Arts and Studies, where they learn to master the ability to communicate effectively, think critically and solve problems. Dean College is also renowned for the services we provide to students with diverse learning styles. A unique system of advising results in excellent retention and achievement, and we can rightfully claim an outstanding record of helping students become confident lifelong learners. In large part, the success of our students is closely tied to the excellence and commitment of our faculty. The dedicated women and men who teach at Dean College share the conviction that different people learn in different ways, and everyone holds to the belief that each student deserves nothing but the best. Complete and Classic For a small school, we pack a great deal into our undergraduate culture, creating a complete and classic college experience for our students. Let’s start with the campus itself. With 110 green acres offering plenty of outdoor space for Frisbee, sunbathing or alfresco studying, we can boast the kind of picture-perfect campus that matches any high schooler’s vision of what a college is meant to look like. Residence life here at Dean is also thriving, with 90 percent of our students living on campus. Our quality of life also gets high marks, including WiFi everywhere and excellent on-campus dining. TELLING THE BRAND STORY | DEAN COLLEGE 12 Our students take great pleasure and satisfaction in the broad range of campus activities we offer. We offer more than 25 clubs that run the gamut in terms of academic, community service, dance, governance, multicultural and social objectives. We’re no “suitcase school” either. Weekends are lively here, with dances, concerts, comedy nights and guest speakers. There are popular Dean traditions as well, such as the late-night breakfast during exam weeks and the faculty/staff vs. students softball game. Dean has a thriving athletics program, with 85 percent of students participating on the NJCAA or intramural level. Our 10 teams have enjoyed a long history of success, including championships, bowl games, All-Americans and graduates who transfer to play in some of the country’s top athletic programs. This explains why there are always fans in the stands to cheer on our Bulldogs. And if it’s just staying in shape that is of interest, we have a state-of-the-art fitness center, aerobics and Pilates classes, and intramural activities. Our arts programs also bring a very special flavor to campus that is felt by all members of the community. Not only are great performances scheduled throughout the year, but it’s not all that unusual to be in the dining hall when someone (or even a small group) breaks into song. At a small school like ours, students have amazing opportunities to lead, create and participate, trying just about any area they might be interested in exploring. That counts for a lot in crafting a complete and classic college experience. Ever Empowering No one falls through the cracks at Dean. Why? Because there are no cracks. We’re known for the support we offer our students — not only in the classroom, but on the athletic fields, the performance stages, in the transfer process and everywhere else. We build confidence in our students and they flourish, transforming themselves into serious learners and confident leaders. TELLING THE BRAND STORY | DEAN COLLEGE 13 At the center of this empowerment is our distinctive advising system. A designated academic advisor is assigned to each student, and that person usually goes on to fill roles that extend beyond the traditional confines of the advisor/ advisee relationship. Advisors become mentors, motivators and very special friends, cultivating success at every point along the way. They help students select their majors, map out their schedules, research transfer opportunities upon graduation and explore and clarify career goals. They closely monitor each student’s academic progress and, in the case of international students, they handle all immigration issues. At Dean, each student works with our faculty and staff to develop an individualized plan for success. Our excellent academic support centers offer tutoring, which is taken advantage of by many students. Other ways we support and empower our students include an Honors Program, offering extra challenging courses and seminars for students of exceptional talent, while those students in need of more academic support may join either the Arch Learning Community or the Pathway Learning Community. Our students with disabilities also find a complete range of services, while our international students, a growing contingent, participate in the International Student Focus Program, which provides cultural orientation and language assistance. It’s all about personalized attention and one-on-one contact — the real hallmarks of The Dean Difference. Best of Both Coming Together People at Dean talk about the fact that wherever they go on campus, they are always running into people they know. It’s a friendly, close-knit community, and that carries a lot of weight in a world that is too fast becoming anonymous. That kind of culture begins at the top. President Paula M. Rooney is a recognized and accessible figure on campus and is known to even pop into classrooms to do a bit of teaching when the mood strikes her. That same culture of caring and accessibility finds it way to the faculty, which never views students as numbers, but rather as individuals. Professors are always available to lend an extra hand with any academic issues, and students respond by delivering good work. Staff — whether they’re in the Financial Aid office, the library or the dining center — are also known for their caring and accessibility. We’re all in it together here at Dean. Dean, in fact, often feels like a small town, where everybody knows your name and people go out of their way to help, and and where a real respect for and interest in diversity exists. There is a sense of unity at Dean that brings together all of our distinct constituencies — actors, athletes, dancers, business students, you name it — into a common community Tagline Discover The Dean Difference What could be better than to be tucked away in a scenic, historic New England town and still be just a short trek from exciting city life? Franklin is a safe, friendly and charming spot, enjoying neighbors such as Gillette Stadium and Patriot Place, with its 1.3 million square feet of shopping, dining and entertainment. There’s plenty to do right in the area, but whenever you get the urge to be on a bigger playing field, you can walk a few minutes from campus and grab a commuter train to Boston — one of America’s greatest cities and the ultimate college town. Many of our students also enjoy visiting Providence, another great college town just a 45-minute drive away. TELLING THE BRAND STORY | DEAN COLLEGE 14 SECTION THREE Editorial Style Guide Editorial Style Guide The Dean College Editorial Style augments the Associated Press Stylebook. For notes on style not addressed here, please refer to that manual. Where notes on style, usage and punctuation differ, adhere to the Dean Brand Style Guide. The word “degree” should not follow an abbreviation: Abbreviations and Acronyms Capitalization An acronym is the grouping of a series of initials, or initial letters, for an entity or organization that makes up a unique word used as the shorthand for the name of that organization (OPEC, MENSA, NATO, NASA, etc.), as distinct from abbreviations, which are a series of initials used as the shorthand name for that organization (FBI, CIA, etc.). Acronyms and abbreviations often are used in a similar manner. People In general, avoid unnecessary use of acronyms or abbreviations whenever possible. When necessary, spell out the first reference followed by the acronym or abbreviation in parentheses; the acronym or abbreviation may be used for subsequent references. Acronyms and abbreviations may be used for the first reference if they are widely recognized: • She has an A.A. in Business. • She has a bachelor’s degree in Business. Dean's standard is to capitalize a job title when it immediately precedes or follows the person’s name. • Dean College President Paula M. Rooney, Ed.D. Paula M. Rooney, Ed.D., President of Dean College • Professor of Environmental Science Laurie McDonough Laurie McDonough, Professor of Environmental Science The Dean Difference This should always be capitalized as The Dean Difference when referring to or promoting the unique traits and attributes of the College. • SAT, NASA Cities and States Use periods in two-letter abbreviations. Use all caps, but no periods, in longer abbreviations: Use commas to separate the name of a state when it follows a city: • U.S., U.N., Ph.D. (even though it has the small “h”), BSE, YMCA, CIA Spell out the names of the 50 U.S. states when they stand alone, but use the ZIP abbreviations listed below when a state is listed with a city, town, village, etc. International readers do not understand U.S. state abbreviations. Write out the state names in materials designated primarily for global audiences. Academic Degrees The preferred form is to spell out degrees and avoid abbreviations. Formal Use General Use 1 General Use 2 Abbreviated Use Bachelor of Arts bachelor’s degree bachelor’s B.A. Bachelor of Science bachelor’s degree bachelor’s B.S. Associate in Arts associate degree associate A.A. Associate in Science associate degree associate A.S. • The train ride ended in Boston, MA, at 5:00 p.m. Note about use of United States: Use “U.S.” only as an adjective, otherwise spell it out. “She studied U.S. culture of the 1950s.” “She studied the culture of the United States from the 1950s.” EDITORIAL STYLE GUIDE | DEAN COLLEGE 16 States and ZIP codes For communications within the United States, use postal abbreviations for the states as shown below. For international communications, use the full state name as shown below. When used with a city, place a comma before and after the state name: • Dean College, in Franklin, MA, is ...

Avoid using the term “minority,” if possible. Do not use a hyphen when African American is used as a noun or an adjective. This applies to all such ethnic classifications. For Native American follow the person’s preference. Where possible, use the name of the tribe: He is a Wampanaog storyteller. Dates and Times Use figures for days of the month. Omit the ordinal designations, such as 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th. Place a comma between the month and the year when the day is mentioned: • On April 27, 2009, Discover Dean Day brought together hundreds of people. Do not place a comma between the month and the year when the day is not mentioned: • In April 2009, Discover Dean Day brought together hundreds of people. When a month is used with a specific date, abbreviate the month according to AP style: Jan., Feb., Aug. Sept., Oct., Nov. and Dec. (all others spelled out). Spell out when using alone or with a year alone: • Aug. 27, 2011 • August • August 2011 Exception: In display type, such as in ads and brochures, the designer can use his or her discretion in spelling out months even with specific dates. Use figures for years without commas: 2011. Span of time and Numerical quantities To indicate a range of values use the en-dash, which is longer than a hyphen (em, en, hyphen details page 20). • 9 a.m.–5 p.m., Monday–Friday, ages 5–8, May–June To refer to a period of time within the same century as an adjective: use the year, an en dash and the last two digits. • the 2012–13 academic year Join full years with an en dash when the range crosses into another century. • the 1999–2000 academic year EDITORIAL STYLE GUIDE | DEAN COLLEGE 17 Use “to” instead of a hyphen when the year or time is a noun: • from 1989 to 2005 • The meetings will take place from 8:00 to 11:00 a.m. Monday through Friday. Use the year, an en dash and the last two digits to refer to a period of time within the same century as an adjective, but full years joined by an en dash when the range crosses into another century: Dimensions Use figures and spell out inches, feet, yards, etc., to indicate depth, height, length and width. Hyphenate adjectival forms before nouns. •H e is 5 feet 6 inches tall, the 5-foot-6-inch man, the 5-foot man, the basketball team signed a 7-footer. • the 2012–13 academic year • T he car is 17 feet long, 6 feet wide and 5 feet high.

Use “to” instead of a hyphen when the year or time is a noun: • from 1989 to 2005 • The meetings will take place from 8:00 to 11:00 a.m. Monday through Friday. • The building has 6,000 square feet of floor space. Use an apostrophe to indicate feet and quote marks to indicate inches (5'6") only in very technical contexts. When abbreviating years to two digits, put an apostrophe in front of the years: • the Class of ’76 • the summer of ’66 Dates following a day of the week should be set apart by commas: • He decided that Friday, Oct. 12, would be a convenient date. Times generally come before days and dates: Disabilities In general, do not describe an individual as disabled or handicapped. If it is relevant to the material and you must use a description, try to be specific: • Muhammad Ali, boxing hero and a former Olympic champion, defied the symptoms of Parkinson’s to light the torch in a rare public appearance. • The performance will take place at 3:00 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 12. Use “accessible parking,” rather than disabled or handicapped parking. When emphasizing the exact time, or when using a.m. or p.m., use figures: Emphasize the concept of using neutral language and not defining people by their disability: • 7:00 p.m. (always include the minutes after the colon) • 7:30 p.m. Lowercase a.m. and p.m., and include the periods, as shown. 12:00 a.m. should be referred to as midnight; 12:00 p.m. should be referred to as noon. • T he veteran uses a wheelchair. Not: The veteran is confined to a wheelchair. • T he child, who has autism, ... Not: The autistic child ... Not: The child, who suffers from autism... Hyphens may be used with dates, and should always be used with dates when both days of the week and dates are included. File Formats • The workshop is set for Monday through Thursday, July 18–21. If a file format acronym is being used in a sentence, it should be set in all caps. • I used three GIF images in my design. EDITORIAL STYLE GUIDE | DEAN COLLEGE 18 If a file format acronym is being used to indicate the type of downloadable file in a link, it should be set in lowercase with a period preceding it. • The image (.gif) is available for download. • Commencement 2011 press release (.pdf) Latin Suffixes •a lumnus/alumni (male graduate/plural; also plural for a group consisting of male and female graduates) • alumna/alumnae (female graduate/plural) • emerita/emeritae (retired faculty woman who keeps her rank or title/plural) Inclusive Language Use nonsexist language and follow these recommendations: •e meritus/emeriti (retired faculty man who keeps his rank or title/plural; also plural for a group consisting of male and female retirees) Don’t say “he” when referring to an unspecified person. Instead, recast the sentence into the plural, or avoid the use of pronouns altogether. Punctuation • (Incorrect) Each student is expected to met his deadline. • (Correct) Students are expected to turn in their paper by the deadline. Colons Use a colon to introduce long lists. If it’s impossible to solve the problem using these approaches, remember that “he or she” is preferable to “he/she.” Leave a colon outside quotation marks unless it is part of a quotation. Avoid gender-specific titles or terms, such as: Follow the colon with a single space. Instead of Use chairman chair Capitalize the first word after a colon if it is a proper noun or the start of a complete sentence; lowercase the first word if it is part of a sentence. businessman business executive, manager cameraman camera operator coed female student congressman representative, senator fireman firefighter Commas foreman supervisor Here are guidelines for some common uses of the comma: founding fathers founders mailman mail carrier to man to staff, to run, to operate • T hree or more items in a simple list: The event is for students, alumni, parents, families and friends.

(Use a comma before the last item in a series to improve comprehension.) EDITORIAL STYLE GUIDE | DEAN COLLEGE 19 • A series of adjectives equal in importance: Dean is an independent, coeducational institution. • Complete sentences that are combined with a conjunction: The event is open to the public free of charge, but reservations are required. •A n introductory phrase from the rest of a sentence: First, we must double the amount of external support. • States: John Jones, of Newark, DE, is the president of the organization. • Yes and no; and names/titles in a direct address: Yes, officer, I’ll obey the traffic laws. Dashes Em Dash Use an em dash to relay a break in thought. Place a single space on either side of the em dash. This is the longer dash (“—”) as compared to the shorter en dash (“–”). Em dashes are created by holding down the Alt+Ctrl+number pad Minus Sign keys (Windows), or Shift+Option+Minus Sign keys (Mac). Hyphens Hyphen: - (“-” on keyboard) Do not hyphenate words beginning with non, except if there is a proper noun: • non-American; nonscholarship Do not place a hyphen between the prefixes pre, semi, anti, sub, etc., and nouns or adjectives, except before proper nouns, but avoid duplicated vowels or consonants: • reapply • semidetached • antiwar • pre-enroll Use hyphens to connect compound modifiers, being careful about meaning: • white-hot metal or white hot metal (depending on which is meant) • calculator-wielding graduate student An em dash can also be used to set off elements within a sentence. This requires an em dash at the beginning and end of the phrase. Do not use a hyphen on adverbs ending in -ly: • T he materials used by the artist — wood, steel and plastic — created a powerful contrast. • a badly cooked egg En Dash Hyphenate part-time and full-time only when used as adjectives: In print pieces, use en dashes to span value ranges, such as 2012–13 and noon–5:00 p.m., Tuesday–Thursday, or June–July. En dashes are also used in two-word modifiers such as "New Orleans–style shrimp." To enter an en dash, press Ctrl+number pad Minus Sign keys (Windows) or Option+hyphen (Mac). If using Constant Contact or other software that doesn’t support en or em dashes, you may use hypens as follows: • for en dash use space hyphen space (e.g. 2010 - 2012 • for em dash use space hyphen hyphen space (e.g. We saw the ad -- color is good.) • an easily hit ball • a loudly ringing phone • She has a full-time job at Dean. She works at Dean full time. Use a hyphen between numbers that are not dates: • 231-29-0002 Use a hyphen, not a comma, to separate institutions from their city locations: • the University of California-Berkeley Some colleges/universities omit the hyphen before a campus location; refer to their website or style guide for how the institutional name is represented. • University of Massachusetts Boston EDITORIAL STYLE GUIDE | DEAN COLLEGE 20 Ellipses Telephone Numbers In a sentence, add a space before and after a three-dot ellipsis: Use area codes with hyphens, not periods, for all telephone numbers, or at least once with a listing. This practice has become necessary because of the increasing use of mobile phones: •S he reported what the speaker said … and then followed up with her own comments. If the words that precede an ellipsis make up a complete sentence, insert a period at the end of the last word before the ellipsis and follow it with a space and an ellipsis: • The speaker said that he was happy to be running for office again. … Periods Use a single space after a period at the end of a sentence. Quotation Marks The period and comma always go inside the quotation marks: • “He will stop by tomorrow,” she said. • 508-258-3000 • F or international numbers (country code, city code, telephone number): 011-44-20-7535-1515 (use 011 when calling from the United States) • For 800 and other toll-free numbers: 800-879-3326 Dean Main Numbers The default toll free phone listing for Dean College and its proper format should be 877-TRY-DEAN • When necessary, include the number figures as (877-879-3326) When not utilizing a toll free number, the default phone number should be 508-541-1900 The question mark goes inside when part of the direct quote, outside when applying to quoted material within an entire sentence. Tagline • “Will you explain distribution requirements to me?” asked the student. Discover The Dean Difference • What is meant by “distribution requirements”? The semicolon goes outside quoted material within a sentence: • Refer to them as “conference participants”; all others should be known as “guests.” On the Web, use straight quotation marks: "like this"; in printed publications, use smart quotation marks: “like this.” This function can be turned on or off in MS Word under Tools>AutoCorrect>AutoFormat as you Type>Replace as you type>"Straight quotation marks" with “smart quotation marks.” Semicolons Use the semicolon to set off a series that includes commas: • T he main offices are in Mercer County, NJ; Marion County, IN; and Broward County, FL In text, the tagline is initial caps without quote marks.

EDITORIAL STYLE GUIDE | DEAN COLLEGE 24 SECTION FOUR Guide to Visual and Graphic Standards Dean College Word Mark As part of the College’s branding initiative, a more contemporary iteration of our formal logo has been developed. The refreshed word mark now takes its place as a key visual element within the overall identity system. The word mark represents Dean College to our students, faculty and key stakeholder groups beyond campus. Combined with photography, typography and color, it is the foundation of our balanced and flexible institutional identity system. Consistent use of the word mark builds awareness of Dean College in the academic community and beyond. For communication to be effective, our word mark must be used correctly at all times. It is the appropriate symbol for use in all forms of visual communications, including, but not limited to publications, presentations/displays, promotional items and advertisements, and signage on buildings/vehicles. WORD MARK | DEAN COLLEGE 26 Word Mark With Tagline The Dean College word mark is also available as an underlined version with our tagline. Whenever possible, this two-color combination of the word mark and tagline should be used to reinforce the Dean College brand. This underlined version should only be used when the word mark is big enough for the tagline to be read clearly. Typically it should be used on ads, posters, flyers, brochures and any other publication/media where size will not impede legibility. If the word mark is smaller than one inch wide, simply use the word mark without the tagline as shown on the previous page. Primary Tagline — Discover The Dean Difference (use initial capitals in text). This tagline may be edited slightly if Dean College is referenced in advance of the tagline. The alternate version in that scenario would be ‘Dean College – Discover The Difference’ as in the Primary logo. Secondary Tagline is ‘Prepare for What’s Next.’ Use of the Primary Tagline is preferred. DISCOVER THE DIFFERENCE “DISCOVER THE DEAN DIFFERENCE” is the tagline in the word mark, and is used in all caps. The word mark is PMS 201. The underline and tagline always appear in the same position and proportion relative to the word mark. The underline and tagline are PMS Cool Gray 10. See page 41 for information on printing spot and process colors. WORD MARK | DEAN COLLEGE 27 WORD MARK WITH tagline When reproduction quality or printing restrictions prohibit use of the two-color word mark, the one-color variations shown here may be used. The word mark may be used in black, with a 65% shade of black for the tagline, or reversed to white. DISCOVER THE DIFFERENCE DISCOVER THE DIFFERENCE WORD MARK | DEAN COLLEGE 28 WORD MARK GUIDELINES The word mark has been created for maximum readability and impact and should not be used at a size smaller than 1 inch in width. If you are required to use the word mark smaller than 1 inch in width, simply use the mark without the tagline. The word mark should always be surrounded by an exclusion zone. This protected area keeps images and/or type from getting too close. The recommended minimum distance to be allowed on all sides is the cap height of the letter “D” in “DEAN” (see example to the right). DISCOVER THE DIFFERENCE Minimum usage: width should never be less than 1 inch wide. DISCOVER THE DIFFERENCE Nothing may appear within the exclusion zone. WORD MARK GUIDELINES | DEAN COLLEGE 29 Word Mark Guidelines Using the Dean College word mark correctly maintains consistency and strengthens the Dean College brand and identity. The word mark should be as prominent as possible. It is important that background colors provide sufficient contrast with the word mark. If it is necessary that the word mark be reversed out of a multicolored background or a photograph, it is important that the word mark stands out clearly. Avoid the placement of the Dean College word mark against backgrounds from which it cannot be clearly distinguished. College Do not scale disproportionately. Do not alter or create any elements. Do not rotate other than 90 degrees. Do not use without college. Do not change the colors. Do not use on a patterned background. Shown here are several examples of word mark misuse. WORD MARK GUIDELINES | DEAN COLLEGE 30 Dean College Secondary Signature System Dean College has created a secondary signature system to allow for the appropriate identification and prominence of organizations, departments and centers within the College, while maintaining the overall integrity of the word mark. Typically this signature system should be used on ads, posters, flyers, brochures, stationery and any other publication/media where size will not impede legibility. The signature system should be used when the word mark is big enough for the organization name to be read clearly. Please see guidelines for spacing and alignment on page 33. The secondary signature is centered beneath the word mark, separated by a horizontal rule, and should always be set in Franklin Gothic Book, ALL CAPS. The maximum width should be no greater than the width of the primary word mark. The word mark is PMS 201. LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE The horizontal rule and organization name are both PMS Cool Gray 10. The Dean College tagline should never be used within the secondary signature system structure. See page 41 for information on printing spot and process colors. SECONDARY SIGNATURE SYSTEM | DEAN COLLEGE 31 Secondary Signature System When reproduction quality or printing restrictions prohibit use of the two-color signature system, the one-color variations shown here may be used. The word mark may be used in black, with a 65% shade of black for the signature system, or reversed to white. LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE SECONDARY SIGNATURE SYSTEM | DEAN COLLEGE 32 Secondary Signature System Guidelines The secondary signature system has been created for maximum readability and impact and should not be used at a size smaller than 1 inch in width.

LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE Minimum usage: width should never be less than 1 inch wide. LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE Nothing may appear within the exclusion zone. SECONDARY SIGNATURE SYSTEM GUIDELINES | DEAN COLLEGE 33 Supporting Logos At times, it may be appropriate to pair the word mark with supporting logos representing awards, co-sponsors or partner organizations. When this occurs, the word mark should be used with the Dean College website. The supporting logo should be visibly smaller than the Dean College word mark, and must respect the mandatory exclusion zone. WWW.DEAN.EDU SUPPORTING LOGOS | DEAN COLLEGE 34 Dean College Institutional Mark The Dean College institutional mark is the most restricted of all logos and should be used to validate and authenticate official institutional documents and communicate the significance of specific occasions and events. This institutional mark should not be used for the purposes of general advertising, promotions or informal communications. INSTITUTIONAL MARK | DEAN COLLEGE 35 institutional mark The institutional mark contributes to a distinguishable element of Dean’s identity. Whenever possible, the two-color combination of the institutional mark and tagline should be used to reinforce the Dean College brand. The institutional mark is black. The Dean College tagline used in this institutional mark is “Discover The Difference” in initial caps. The tagline always appears in the same position and proportion relative to the word mark. The tagline is PMS 201. When reproduction quality or printing restrictions prohibit use of the two-color institutional mark, the one-color variations shown here may be used. The institutional mark may be used in PMS 201, black or reversed to white. See page 41 for information on printing spot and process colors. INSTITUTIONAL MARK | DEAN COLLEGE 36 Institutional Mark Guidelines The institutional mark has been created for maximum readability and impact; it should not be used at a size smaller than 1 inch in width. If you are required to use the institutional mark smaller than 1 inch in width, simply use the mark without the tagline. Minimum usage: width should never be less than 1 inch wide. The institutional mark should always be surrounded by an exclusion zone. This protected area keeps images and/or type from getting too close.

The two-color word mark and address information is to be positioned as shown. Please follow this style for consistency. The recommended typeface for body copy on letterhead is Franklin Gothic Book, with a type size of 11 point and a line spacing of 14 points. If the Franklin Gothic typeface is unavailable, Arial is an acceptable alternative. Note that the seal stationery is reserved for official usage by the President’s, Institutional Advancement and Academic Affairs offices. When using letterhead with an address for window envelopes mailing, set the document’s margins as follows: Standard Margins: Top – 2 inches, Left & Right – 1 inch, Bottom – 0.25 inch for most printers. If address is too low or high in window, check and adjust the folding before changing the top margins by small increments. Official Restricted Usage Letterhead February 1, 2012 Sample A.

It is perhaps the most significant identifier that the College uses. The consistent use of color is a vital part of communicating the College’s brand. The official maroon (PMS 201) is the primary color for use in all print and electronic media. Secondary colors gold (PMS 130) and gray (Cool Gray 10) should be used to complement the maroon, but should not be used as a stand-alone element to the color palette. PRIMARY COLOR SECONDARY COLORS PMS 201 PMS Cool Gray 10 PMS 130 C 0 + M 100 + Y 63 + K 29 C 0 + M 2 + Y 0 + K 60 C 0 + M 37 + Y 100 + K 0 R 147 + G 0 + B 54 R 97 + G 98 + B 101 R 224 + G 173 + B 32 HEX #930036 HEX #616265 HEX #E0AD20 Additionally, a complementary palette of blue (PMS 301), green (PMS 362), purple (PMS 2607) and beige (PMS 4545) has been created to provide color accents and variation within the Dean College identity. Complementary COLORS When printing one-, two- or three-color publications, spot colors (Pantone) are recommended. When printing four-color publications, the CMYK values provided should be used. RGB and hexadecimal equivalents are also shown and should be used when appropriate.

Franklin Gothic is the preferred typeface and, when possible, should be used on all identity items and publications. When selecting a particular typeface, please use the following recommendations as a guide: • F ranklin Gothic Book: Use for body copy (also note body copy usage page 43). • F ranklin Gothic Book Italic should only be used when copy requires it. Do not set blocks of copy in italic or use italic as a design element. • Franklin Gothic Demi or Medium: Use for headlines, captions or copy that needs an emphasis, such as pull-quotes. • In certain instances (e.g., email, online applications, digital displays, etc.), Arial is an acceptable alternative if the Franklin Gothic typeface is unavailable.

Our photography communicates our commitment to high academic standards, engagement with faculty, and our vibrant and friendly student body. Whenever possible, photography should be a minimum of 300 dpi, at final size, to ensure the highest quality reproduction. For Web use, photos and images should be 72 ppi and sized to optimize loading time (i.e., do not use an 8-by-10 inch image for a 2-by-2 inch space). PHOTOGRAPHY | DEAN COLLEGE 45 ATHLETIC Secondary Logos Dean College athletics is a vital and highly visible aspect of the College’s brand identity. All official athletics materials should display an athletic mark. The College’s athletic marks should never be used in place of the Dean College word mark or Dean College institutional mark in any academic application. The Athletic marks print in PMS 201 and black. The Paw print may be used in all black, gray, white, or with a black or white outline when necessary against a dark or light background. Do not substitute colors or manipulate the look of the athletic marks in any way.
