Three key character traits have been identified that make Laurentian University and its image unique among its peers: Accessible Education As the university that makes education accessible, our communications must likewise be easy to use and easy to understand by a diverse stakeholder audience. Communications are user-focused and consider the point of view of the audience and the tools they need to understand who we are and what we offer. Professional Approachability Laurentian takes education seriously. Yet we have a friendly attitude that is consistent with a personalized and supportive learning environment and the unique natural environment in which we study. Multi-faceted The Laurentian learning experience is made more distinct by the diversity of our student body, faculty, programs, teaching methods and research – a true reflection of the composition of Canada. We are part of and create a community. We understand that we act in context and not alone and that this creates excellent results for our students, faculty and the community at large. In the years to come, our image and reputation will play an important role in our continued success. Our logo, tagline, corporate colours, fonts and style of imagery are the foundation for building our visual identity when used consistently across all our communication materials. Laurentian University Visual Identity Guidelines April 2006 Laurentian Logo Laurentian Brand 1.02 One Identity, Two Marks Laurentian Logo The Laurentian University logo is our primary brand identifier, and should be used on all standard communications, from stationery and signage to our website and PowerPoint presentations. Laurentian Crest The traditional Laurentian crest continues to be used for ceremonial purposes. Its traditional style reflects an established educational institution and lends stature to official university documents such as diplomas and certificates. All approved versions of the Laurentian logo and crest are available as digital artwork from Public Affairs. Laurentian Crest Laurentian University Visual Identity Guidelines April 2006 Laurentian Logo 2.01 Overview Rationale The Laurentian logo is a contemporary interpretation of our traditional university crest, designed to help us project an updated image of Laurentian as relevant, youthful and culturally distinct. The logo brings the symbolic tree and sun elements from the crest into greater prominence. The tree and sun represent the two elements that form the foundation of a Laurentian education – growth and illumination from learning and the unique natural environment in which the learning takes place. The tree symbol, with its five branches, also represents the bilingual and tricultural population of Laurentian as well as the three federated universities that are part of Laurentian. English-Dominant Version Shield Symbol Logotype Logo Symbol and Logotype The logo is composed of two graphic elements: the Shield symbol and the logotype. These elements exist as a single unit in fixed proportions and must never be altered. Versions The Laurentian University logo is bilingual, available in both English-dominant and French-dominant versions. All approved versions of the Laurentian logo are available as digital artwork from Public Affairs. French-Dominant Version Laurentian University Visual Identity Guidelines April 2006 Structure Laurentian Logo 2.02 Logo Grid Structure The grid shown here indicates how the relationship between the Shield and logotype is derived, with the distance between them being equal to the height of the initial “L” in Laurentian, and the top of the shield being aligned with the top of the logotype. Minimum Clear Space Minimum Clear Space To give prominence to the Laurentian logo in all applications, a minimum amount of clear space must be maintained around it. No other graphic element, pattern or text may appear in this space. The minimum clear space is equal to half the width of the Shield, as shown in the diagram. Minimum Size A minimum size restriction is enforced to ensure clarity and legibility. The standard Laurentian logo should not be applied at a size less than 2" wide. Minimum Size Minimum Size – Small Logo Version Special Small Logo Version A special version of the logo has been created for applications smaller than 2" wide. This special logo must not be reproduced smaller than 1.5". 2" 1.5" Laurentian University Visual Identity Guidelines April 2006 English-Dominant Version with Tagline Laurentian Logo 2.03 Logo and Tagline Logo and Tagline The Laurentian tagline: “Learning. It’s in our Nature.”, brings the Laurentian message into greater focus. It can appear with the Laurentian logo as shown, on its own as a headline, or within text. When used with the Laurentian logo, the tagline always appears in the same size and position. The combination of logo and tagline is available as digital artwork and must not be altered in any way. French-Dominant Version with Tagline Narrative Treatment of Tagline When the tagline is used alone as a headline (or within a headline) for promotional purposes, it should appear in one of the corporate fonts in a manner appropriate to its use (i.e., it does not need to be set in the font and style of the tagline artwork as it appears with the logo.) When used in a body of text, it should remain italicized. All approved versions of the Laurentian logo and tagline combination are available as digital artwork from Public Affairs. Learning. It’s in our Nature. Learning. It’s in our Nature. Apprendre, naturellement. Laurentian University Visual Identity Guidelines April 2006 Positive Applications Reverse Applications 2-Colour 2-Colour 1-Colour (Laurentian Blue) 1-Colour (Laurentian Blue) 1-Colour (black) 1-Colour (black or other solid background) Laurentian Logo 2.04 Colour Applications Positive Applications Two-Colour Positive The two-colour positive logo appears in Laurentian Blue and Laurentian Yellow on a white background. This version should be used whenever possible. One-Colour Positive The one-colour positive logo may appear in either Laurentian Blue or black on a white or light coloured background. Reverse Applications Two-Colour Reverse In the two-colour reverse logo, the sun element appears in Laurentian Yellow, with all other elements in white, including an additional white keyline around the Shield symbol. Laurentian Blue should be the only background colour used with this version. One-Colour Reverse The one-colour reverse application appears in white on a background of either Laurentian Blue or black. All approved versions of the positive and reverse logo are available as digital artwork from Public Affairs. 2-Colour (black) Laurentian University Visual Identity Guidelines April 2006 Do not alter the position of the Shield symbol. Do not change the size relationship between the Shield symbol and the logotype. Do not re-scale, skew or distort the logo. Do not add clip-art or other graphic elements. Do not use outlines or add drop shadows. Do not transpose or substitute the corporate colours. Do not place the two-colour logo on a coloured background. Do not contain the logo within a shape. Laurentian Logo 2.05 Incorrect Usage The Laurentian logo must always be used as supplied and not altered in any way. Any change to the logo can dramatically reduce the effectiveness of the design. Do not remove the Shield from the logotype. Laurentian University Visual Identity Guidelines April 2006 Laurentian Corporate Colours Colour Palette 3.01 Primary Colours Laurentian’s primary corporate colours are Laurentian Blue and Laurentian Yellow. To reinforce the Laurentian identity, all printed and electronic materials should use the prima te colours as their predominant colour elements. Laurentian Blue Coated Paper Uncoated Paper Digital Pantone C-M-Y-K Pantone C-M-Y-K R-G-B Hexadecimal PMS 286C 100-66-0-2 PMS 293U 100-57-0-2 13-54-146 0033AB 0-24-94-0 PMS 115U 0-9-80-0 255-194-17 FCC917 Laurentian Yellow PMS 123C Laurentian University Visual Identity Guidelines April 2006 Bright Palette Colour Palette 3.02 Secondary Colours A secondary palette complements Laurentian’s primary colours and serves to add variety and visual interest to our communications. Featuring earth tones and blues, this palette helps us to create a sense of the unique natural environment in which we study. Because colour is a strong conveyer of mood, the palette has been designed to allow for a wide range of expression, with a choice of bright, and neutral colours. Secondary colours are also an effective tool for identification. They can be used to make navigation easier in digital media, or to identify a series of publications. No single colour, however, should be “owned” by a particular faculty or program. All colours must remain available to everyone.

Please see the President’s Report and the Student’s Guide excerpts in sections 6.7 and 6.8 for examples of the use of the secondary palette and its shades.

As a general guide, Frutiger should be used for headlines and Minion should be used for body copy. These fonts are readily available for purchase and download from the Web, in both Macintosh and PC formats. For digital applications and everyday correspondence, TrueType fonts Arial and Times New Roman can be used in place of Frutiger and Minion respectively. These fonts are widely available and installed on most PC computers.

Consistency in the style and subject matter of Laurentian imagery is essential to creating an impression about who we are and what we represent. While original commissioned imagery will naturally be the most accurate representation of Laurentian, the costs associated with it are not always warranted. Rights-managed and royalty-free imagery can be effective if they are in keeping with our brand character. Imagery Guidelines All imagery should be: • “true-to-life” •contemporary, with a simple composition • youthful, bright and optimistic • welcoming, approachable, fun. Portrait Guidelines Students and faculty should be featured prominently in all publications. Imagery should: •seem “true-to-life” whether candid or posed •show students and faculty engaged, in their attitude or their activity •show diversity within a single publication (gender and race, including foreign and native Canadian students). Laurentian University Visual Identity Guidelines April 2006 Imagery 5.02 Activity Imagery of activities should: • depict a variety of learning environments (classroom, outdoor) •feature contemporary classroom environments (modern, with technology, etc.) •depict a faculty that really cares about teaching •include students studying or enjoying recreation in a natural environment •draw attention to the things that make Laurentian unique: small class sizes, special programs, research Laurentian University Visual Identity Guidelines April 2006 Imagery 5.03 Natural Environment Sudbury’s beautiful natural environment is one of Laurentian’s distinguishing features. A connection between nature, students and Laurentian should be represented in publications whenever possible. When selecting or commissioning photography of the Laurentian campus, look for images that show campus buildings in close proximity to the natural environment.√ When commissioned photography is not feasible, rights-managed and royalty-free images can be used, provided they depict a natural environment that is characteristic of the region. Laurentian University Visual Identity Guidelines April 2006 6.0 Applications Presentations PowerPoint Document Within the PowerPoint template, there are several variations of pages. The opening page would be an establishing shot, of Laurentian’s various grounds and buildings. Interior slides would feature students, architecture, graduates or faculty, superimposed over the blue area, and mostly faded to white under the main text frame. For slides to feature graphics, retain the image in the blue, but do not superimpose the remainder of the image over the white area.

Whether you’re a fan or an athlete, you’ll find varsity sports are a great part of campus life. Admission to home events is free for students and the teams are encouraged by fans who come out and make some noise. Try-outs are posted on the Voyageur website and around the Physical Education Centre. If you’d like to know more about try-outs, coaches and teams, go online or drop by the Athletic Department in the fall. “I can’t express how great it feels to play for such a supportive community.” Université Laurentienne Sudbury Ontario Canada www.luvoyageurs.com photo: Bruce Hogg Admission - septembre 2006 Cassandra Carpenter, a forward with the Lady Vees basketball team, was named Female Athlete of the Year for 2004-2005. She is in the concurrent Bachelor of Education program. She received the Ottawa Senators’ Scholarship and has been named MVP, Rookie of the Year and Player of the Year since joining the Lady Vees. “My experience in varsity sports has been amazing. I can’t express how great it feels to play for such a supportive community and have everyone behind the team in everything we do. The friendships, memories and opportunities Laurentian Athletics have given me make my experience here very rewarding.” Kanata native Cassandra Carpenter is the sixth Laurentian player in seven years to bring home the OUA East Player of the Year award. photo: Mélanie Provencher photo: Mélanie Provencher 16 Judith Woodsworth Laurentian University President 13 Jon Lalonde graduated from the Sports Administration (SPAD) program in 1999 and is now the scouting director for the Toronto Blue Jays. The Jays hired Jon after he graduated from Laurentian. He worked in corporate partnerships for a year, then in scouting, and eventually became director. “I was just an average student. I didn’t score 29 points for the basketball team or get 90% in school. I just kept my head down and worked hard. I lived in residence for four years and met a lot of great people who I still keep in touch with. Laurentian was really a lot of fun, and it literally got me to where I am today because I was introduced to the Jays during the fourth-year SPAD fieldtrip.” Professor Cheryle Partridge graduated from our Native Human Services program in 1993. She now teaches in the program, which attracts students interested in learning about social work with Aboriginal peoples, world views and perspectives. Tradition and culture are the foundations upon which the program is built. Cheryle is currently working on her PhD and firmly believes that “We have to know where we came from in order to know where we’re going.” Jon Lalonde is a self-described “sports junky” who works with the boys of summer for Canada’s only Major League Baseball team “Laurentian got me to where I am today.” SAMPLE EMPLOYMENT STATISTICS FOR 2002 GRADUATES comparative employment status 6 months 6 months and 2 years after graduation 2 years Commerce 100% 95% Education 100% 100% Humanities 88% 100% Kinesiology and Physical Education 100% 100% Nursing 100% 100% Social Sciences 94% 94% Daniel Mayer Lauréat d’une bourse du millénaire Data collected through a graduate survey conducted by the OUAC 27
