Category one: program items

Program items are worn or used by program members, including coaches, student-athletes, managers, trainers, etc. when they are practicing, competing and/or acting in an official capacity as a representative of ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ College Athletics. This includes pre- and post-game functions, in-game competition, practices and special events in which they participate because of their membership on a Falcons’ team. This includes warm-ups, jerseys, shorts/pants, socks, hats and travel bags. (Note: Whether the item is purchased with institutional funds, auxiliary funds, camps funds or donated money by a program member or someone outside of the program, the guidelines apply.)

Competition uniforms and apparel

• Primary word mark (i.e., “ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ”) across chest (or other location approved by the assistant athletic director)
• Any approved primary, secondary or alternate athletics logo(s) placed on the front, back or sleeve of the uniform is permitted.
• Bottom of uniform piece: any official word mark or primary, secondary or alternate logo(s) placed on the front of the piece is permitted.

• Area of isolation is expected for all marks.

Warm-ups, travel suits, hats, bags, etc.

• If a suit, the front of the top piece must have at least either primary word mark or primary logo (i.e., “Falcon+ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ”). This includes the marks located within sport labeled marks.

Category two: promotional items

Promotional items are created by and supplied by the College, the Athletics Department and/or a Falcons’ team to any/all constituents, including student-athletes, parents, fans, campers, etc. for the purposes of promotional and/or entertainment activities.

Category three: coaching items

All items:

• All program item guidelines apply with one exception: Accent colors of palette are permitted for use as secondary colors.

Category four: digital environment

The Falcon head logo can be used as a favicon for Web URLs.

When logos are used in social media graphics, be sure to evaluate the image to assure that it is unmistakably ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ— there’s no way that this could be viewed as from another college whose initials are MC or has a falcon as its mascot.
