Do not stretch, distort, or re-proportion any university logo.
Use only official university colors (Crimson, White, and Cool Gray). Do not render the "Script A" in non-brand colors (e.g., neon or rival school colors)
Maintain a minimum "clear zone" around all logos equal to the height of the "A" in the wordmark to ensure visibility and impact.
Do not place text, photos, or other graphic elements on top of or behind the university logo.
Always refer to the institution as The University of Alabama on first reference. "UA" or "the University" are acceptable on subsequent references. Avoid "Bama" in formal academic or administrative contexts.
The phrase "Where Legends Are Made" is a registered trademark. It must be used in its entirety and should not be altered (e.g., do not say "Where Doctors Are Made").
