Presentations
It's important to represent the university with a unified look, particularly when presenting to outside parties. Download the PowerPoint template or Google Slides template* (both are available in widescreen format) to use for your presentations across campus and outside the university. If you're in need of imagery for your presentation, don't forget to browse the available University Photo Library.
*Please keep in mind that in order to use the Google Slides template properly, you must go to File then select Make a Copy.
Correspondence
Because St. Edward’s University is one brand, there is one correct format for the official letterhead, email signatures, envelope and business cards to be used across all core academic identities, brand extensions and official university business. When used consistently, our brand is undiluted and presents professionalism.
To place orders for university stationery, envelopes and business cards with FedEx, log in to myHilltop and go to “Order Stationery & Business Cards.”
Email Signatures
Adding an email signature is the perfect opportunity to display your professionalism by making your contact information clear and accessible. It is important that everyone in our community use the same fonts and style to convey a consistent university brand. Email signatures should use our alternative fonts for general communication, Adobe Garamond and Helvetica LT Std.
