Just as crests identified families of old, our logo and other marks portray who we are with an unmistakable brand. We want you to recognize the Ram Family when you see us.
Everyone can be good stewards of the Angelo State University brand by following the guidelines below. The office of communications and marketing is always available to answer your questions. Please call or email us.
Angelo State University: The official name bestowed upon the university in 1969.
Angelo State: The short version of the name, the only difference is the removal of the word “University.”

Logos
When you use the trademarked name and logo combinations with school colors in connection with services or products, such as jackets, caps or T-shirts, these rules apply:
Rule 1: When using two or more colors with the Angelo State University primary logo, make the horn of the ASU logo a different color than the ASU and the spelled out version, Angelo State University.
As shown below, the horn is meant to stand out with its own individual color.
When using the Ram horn logo, our secondary mark as shown below, follow the same rule as for the primary logo.
Note: Always make the eye of the Ram, shown below, the same color as ASU, Angelo State University, or the “U.”
Rule 2: When using black and white colors in association with the Angelo State University logo the ASU horn may be the same color as the background (provided the background color is used as an outline), the ASU letters or the ASU symbol.
Rule 3: Never use Angelo State Marks in or with the color maroon or in a maroon and gold color combination.
Rule 4: Never use ASU or the Angelo State Marks in connection with an image or depiction of a devil, a sunburst design, or a pitchfork.
Other registered marks
The same rules above apply to the colors and style used for these Angelo State University Marks.

The seal is generally approved and licensed only for upscale consumer items, such as diploma frames, pen and pencil sets, paperweights and other products that help maintain the prestige of the seal. The registered trademark symbol should be present when the seal is used in connection with services and products such as these.
The Official Seal comes in full color, black-and-white, and blue-and-white versions.
