Style and Graphic Standards Guide

Mount St. Mary’s University aspires to excellence. We are a complex institution with several locations in Maryland, numerous programs, and increasingly diversified methods of delivering educational services. Our success in communicating our quality and reach depends on consistency in everything we do. Each effort contributes to our overall success as a university of distinction.

People notice when we are consistent and execute our work in a tasteful manner. When each component of the Mount community contributes to this consistency and style, everyone benefits from the cumulative values, and the university receives increased recognition, prestige and awareness.

The Mount St. Mary’s University Style Guide & Graphic Standards Manual provides both guidance and creative opportunities for the Mount community. Please use these guidelines to assist you in the preparation of all communications materials. As always, the Ofice of University Communications stands ready to help you in all of these efforts.
