PART 1

BRAND BACKSTORY

Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology has a rich history of excellence in the field of engineering. Even our founding in 1874 by entrepreneur, industrialist, and

namesake Chauncey Rose echoes today’s demand for quality scientists, engineers, and mathematicians. Chauncey Rose founded the school to address the shortage of engineers critically needed to complete construction of the railroads that were criss-crossing the country.

Since these historic roots, Rose-Hulman has enjoyed a golden reputation through the years by providing the nation’s—and the world’s—top students with a high- caliber, real-world education. Our approach to providing science, engineering, and math education in a small, personal setting by top experts in the field remain intact today and continue to ensure our students’ success.

BRAND OVERVIEW

This guide is a reference for maintaining and positioning the Rose-Hulman brand accurately, professionally, and consistently. It also guides messaging, tone, photography, and visual presentation, particularly for those audiences who may not know anything about us. This reference also serves to support the Mission and Vision of Rose-Hulman, and the initiatives within our current Strategic Plan.

ROSE-HULMAN’S MISSION: The Mission of Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology is to provide our students with the world’s best undergraduate science, engineering, and mathematics education in an environment of individual attention and support.

ROSE-HULMAN’S VISION: Rose-Hulman graduates will be inspired and prepared for lives of purpose and success, defining and solving the problems of a complex global society.

Rose-Hulman will be a lifelong partner with our graduates and a recognized global leader in science, engineering, and mathematics education.

Here are some characteristic values that speak to our strengths. These words and phrases can be used to set the tone in art directing photos, writing copy, and otherwise bringing our stories to life. They are categorized into three areas: innovation, intellect, and individual attention.

Color Usage in Print ApplicationsColor is an important tool for creating consistency among communications materials. The primary colors should always be Rose-Hulman Red and white. An accent color palette has been selected to complement Pantone 7427 (Rose-Hulman Red ) and white. The consistent use of these colors will infuse the communications materials with a stronger sense of brand identity.

Four-Color Process (CMYK Printing)Is used for printed materials with more than one color. CMYK percentages (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black) make up the four-color process, and are mixed to match the desired Pantone color. Spot Color (Printing with Pantone Matching System (PMS) colors)In printed materials that allow for “spot color,” Pantone Matching System (PMS) colors should be used.

Color Usage in Digital Applications (Web and Video)Because you cannot mix inks on computer screens you must mix light. RGB refers to Red, Green, and Blue, the component colors of light. Use the RGB formulas and/or hexadecimal color codes to mix light for applications such as web and video.
