The Branding Kit is the EUS’s very own guide to branding. It is the stylization used throughout the EUS’s documents, signage, letters, etc. to unsure a uniform aesthetic for information provided by the EUS. This uniformity provides a recognizable image that identifies something the EUS does as uniquely belonging to the EUS. It is in no means intended to stifle creativity, but instead is a means of creating a powerful brand that students and the university can use to identify the EUS. The Branding Kit is meant to be concise and easy to read. It is meant to be read over at least once and as a quick reference after that.

The Branding Kit is the EUS’s very own guide to branding. It is the stylization used throughout the EUS’s documents, signage, letters, etc. to unsure a uniform aesthetic for information provided by the EUS. This uniformity provides a recognizable image that identifies something the EUS does as uniquely belonging to the EUS. It is in no means intended to stifle creativity, but instead is a means of creating a powerful brand that students and the university can use to identify the EUS. The Branding Kit is meant to be concise and easy to read. It is meant to be read over at least once and as a quick reference after that.
