The Office of Communication Services is pleased to announce our Font Refresh as part of brand improvement initiatives. We received feedback from campus constituencies regarding accessibility and usability issues using the current University font and typeface, Roboto and Roboto Slab, and Serpentine for athletics. The following fonts have been reviewed by Accessibility Services and received approval to be updated in our brand and style guide as official University fonts:

• Headers: Arvo Bold
• Body Copy: Atkinson Hyperlegible Regular (and Bold when necessary)

Our font/typeface update will impact the following areas:

• University website
• Portales portal
• Brand identity guide and Communication Services Policy
• Stationery templates and misc. items (i.e., business cards, envelopes, nametags)
• Future publications, forms, marketing materials, apparel, and giveaways

To ensure a smooth roll-out, our Office will test and adjust digital content on the University website and the Portal over the coming months. Other updates will take effect immediately for printed materials and publications. The font change will also be applied during the subsequent publication update requests.

Thank you for your time and assistance with our brand initiatives. If you have any questions, please contact [email protected], or call extension 2154.
