Block N Logo
University of Nevada, reno

The Block N logo is the core element of the graphic


identity program, and it should appear on all
University communications.

Section II
The logo should be used on the front of every
University publication including newsletters,
invitations, promotional items, recruiting materials,
postcards, brochures, and posters.
The logo should appear at the top of every
website (upper left corner is preferred, see the web
standards in Section IV for more information).
It can be used on its own without the master or
college logotypes. In fact, use of the logo on its
own is encouraged.
The Block N logo is suitable on its own where
context or identification are clear, or when
complete identification is not essential, such as on
T-shirts or window decals.
The Block N logo is not a standard font. It is a hybrid
of letterforms designed for the specific needs of
the University.
It should not be altered in any way, nor should
the proportions of the N within the block be
changed. The N should not be removed from its
bounding box.
When used on a field of blue or any other
background that is of low contrast, the Block N logo
should include a white border that is proportional
to the size of the Block N logo.

Clear space = 1/2 the height of Block N
There should always be sufficient space around
the logo to keep it clear of distracting elements
such as type, photos and illustrations. In general,
1/2 height

this clear space should be 1/2 of the height of the


Block N logo or 1/4” (whichever is greater). When
placing the logo over photographs, make sure there
is sufficient contrast against the background so the
logo reads clearly.

Minimum size
The size of the Block N logo should always be
proportional to the piece. The height of the
complete signature should never be smaller than
Signature - minimum size 3/4 inch. The size of the logotype will always be

guidelines.

The signature or its elements should never


appear jagged or distorted. If it has the
“jaggies” or is pixilated, vector art should
be substituted. Another alternative is to
download a high resolution from www.unr.

Note that pixel-based artwork such as .jpg
or .gif files cannot be made larger than its
original size without distortion. It can only be
made smaller. Again, high resolution or vector

Photo Styling and Use
University of Nevada, reno

For a more interesting page, include active photos of


people doing things. Faculty and students working in
the field, in the lab or even in the classroom make more
interesting pictures than a posed group shot.

Section II
(See examples of two students in the river and of
Mackay Miners practice.)

Posed photos can be effective! The following picture


works well because (See example of College of
Agriculture, Biotechnology and Natural Resources
student Mark Lemos in the fridge):
• It’s an unexpected view or angle
• It communicates the student’s research environment

Head and shoulder “mug shot” photos work well in


directories, such as on the Department of Mathematics
and Statistics website (www.unr.edu/math/people);
headshots, however, can be boring as the main element
on a page.

To go beyond a headshot, photograph your subject


outside and use the beauty of campus as a backdrop.
(See example of Psychology Professor Victoria Follette.)

For professional head shots (studio photography) and


event photography contact Theresa Danna-Douglas or
Ted Cook in Teaching and Learning Technologies (TLT).

University Style Guide
University of Nevada, reno

The University Style Guide was created to give consistency to University publications, such as brochures,
magazines, newsletters and other pieces for distribution to a large audience. (This guide is not intended
to apply to correspondence, writing for scholarly journals or other writing not related to University
informational or marketing publications.)

In general, The Associated Press’ “Stylebook and Briefing on Media Law” is the official style reference
publication for the University.

The listings below include the most frequently used rules as well as University-specific derivations from
the AP Stylebook

Section III
A

Abbreviations and acronyms

Avoid abbreviations in general. Spell out words commonly abbreviated in everyday speech, such as
laboratory, agriculture, mathematics.

Avoid using unfamiliar acronyms. Spell out the name of the organization on first reference, followed by
the acronym in parentheses. On second reference, use the acronym only.

Use periods only with acronyms of two letters: U.N., U.S., M.D., R.N.
Although periods are still used in many abbreviations, often they may be omitted: CPA, GPA, MBA, ACT,
SAT, LSAT, GMAT, GRE.

Do not abbreviate the words department, institute or association in narrative text.

Abbreviating the University of Nevada, Reno:


For first reference, use the following:

• The University of Nevada, Reno (this is the official name of the University).

Use UNR sparingly, although it is acceptable to use on second reference, along with Nevada or the
University.

Academic degrees
If necessary to mention someone’s degree, try to avoid using an abbreviation and use a phrase such as:
“John Smith, who has a doctorate in engineering.”

Use “Dr.” only for medical doctors.

Spell out academic degrees when space allows. Don’t capitalize them: John Smith earned his master of
business administration degree in 2004.

Uses with master or bachelor to form the possessive: He earned his master’s degree in music; She
graduated with a bachelor’s in English.

When used after a name, an academic abbreviation is set off by commas: John Smith, Ph.D., spoke to
students today.

Some examples of common academic degrees:
bachelor of science – B.S.
master of arts – M.A.
doctor of philosophy – Ph.D.
doctor of education – Ed.D.
doctor of medicine – M.D.

Academic departments
Uppercase formal department names: the Department of Mathematics.
Lowercase otherwise: the history department.

Academic honors
Terms such as cum laude, magna cum laude, with distinction, are used lowercase. The honors for cum
laude distinction, in descending order, are: summa cum laude, magna cum laude and cum laude. Italicize
these names.

Academic titles
Capitalize formal titles such as chancellor or chairman when they precede a name. Lowercase elsewhere.

Academic years
Lowercase: freshman; sophomore; junior; senior; graduate, postgraduate, postdoctoral.

Not advisor.

Alumni, referring to in print


At the University of Nevada, Reno, six credits qualifies an individual to be classified as an alumnus.

If at all possible, identify alumni of the University using the following conventions:

For holders of bachelor’s degrees, use an apostrophe followed by the person’s class year with the person’s
degree field in parentheses, lower case unless a proper noun such as English. No need to specify whether it
was a B.A. or B.S.

John Smith ’98 (history) spoke to a group of high school students. (Note that this is a “right” curly
apostrophe, i.e.: ’, NOT a single open-quote mark ‘ ) John Smith ’98 (history)
For holders of graduate degrees, use the same convention if an academic specialty can be determined:
John Smith ’98M.D. (dermatology), Sally Jones ’81M.A. (anthropology). With the MBA, it is not necessary

Section III
to specify “business administration” in parentheses because there is only one possible specialty within an
MBA – business administration.
Note: there is no space between year and degree.

Use a comma to separate two or more degrees: John Brown ’85 (English), ’88M.A. (sociology) arrived on
Friday. No need to set off the string of degrees with commas.

Ampersand
Spell out “and” in most instances. Use only if part of an official title: Environmental Health & Safety
(ampersand is part of official title); Music and Dance (ampersand is not part of official title).

Apostrophes
The genitive case (indicating a possessor or source) requires an apostrophe or an “of” construction:
Professor Smith has 15 years’ experience in microbiology.

When writing years, use an apostrophe in shortened versions: The 1960s are a hazy memory;
The ’70s were known for disco music.

An apostrophe should be used in pluralizing single letters: He expects to get all A’s this semester.
Don’t use an apostrophe for plurals of degrees: She has enough credits for two MBAs.

Artemesia/artemisia
Artemesia is the correct spelling for the street on which Argenta Hall is located.
Artemisia is the correct spelling when referring to the University yearbook.

ASUN
ASUN, no punctuation, is the acceptable abbreviation for the Associated Students of the University of
Nevada, the University’s undergraduate student government body. Spell out on first reference.

Awards
Capitalize award only when it is part of the name of an award. John Smith won the Student Employee of
the Year award.

B
Black/African American
When referring to Americans of African descent, the term African American is appropriate. However, not
all who are black are of African descent, so “black” is often the preferred usage. Note, hyphenate when
used as an adjective: She told the students to take pride in their African-American heritage.

Board of Regents
The official name of the University’s governing board is “The Board of Regents of the Nevada System of
Higher Education.” Use the following:
• Nevada Board of Regents (first reference)
• regents or Board (second reference)
• regents' or Board's (possessive)

Section III
Book titles and magazine names
Use italics when writing for magazines, such as Nevada Silver and Blue. However, it is becoming
common practice to use italics for printed publications. Therefore, also italicize newspaper titles.

Buildings
Capitalize the formal name of buildings: Getchell Library; Frandsen Humanities. Capitalize building,
auditorium, hall when used in the full, formal name of the structure.

C
Campuswide
No hyphen needed.

Capitalization
Don’t capitalize short forms of the names of University programs and facilities: the financial aid office;
the medical school.

Use capitalization only for the official names of departments or programs, not for the names of
disciplines: Department of Mathematics; she is studying algebra in the mathematics department.

Chairman, chairwoman
Capitalize as a formal title before a name: company Chairman Henry Ford; committee Chairwoman
Mary Jones.

Where possible, don’t use gender-specific language if you can avoid it. Use chair, not chairman or
chairwoman. (Similarly, use firefighter, not fireman or firewoman.) Don’t change the organization’s own
titles, though.

Co-
Retain the hyphen when forming nouns, adjectives and verbs that indicate occupation or status: co-
author; co-chairman; co-worker.

Commencement 2006. Don’t capitalize when used generically: it rained during commencement.

Committees and Subcommittees


Capitalize names.

Cooperative Extension
University of Nevada Cooperative Extension (first reference); Cooperative Extension (second

Section III
reference).

Core Curriculum
Capitalize when used as formal title of program: the University of Nevada, Reno Core Curriculum;
the University Core Curriculum. Lowercase when used generically: Bill Jones plans to take some core
curriculum classes next semester.

Course listings
In an official listing, use caps (Introduction to English Literature). Don’t use quotation marks. For
subject titles, lowercase (art, biology, music, unless a proper noun like French or Shakespeare).

Curriculum, curricula
Use curriculum when referring to a single educational program. Curricula is the plural form.

D
Dates
Use the sequence day of the week, month, date, year. Separate by commas and abbreviate months.
The months March, April, May, June and July are not abbreviated: Wednesday, Dec. 17, 2004. Spell out
when the month stands alone: December 2004. Omit comma when using just the month or season
and year: January 2005; Spring Semester 2002; fall 2003.

Don’t use “th” suffix when a date is included in a sentence. Wrong: He attended the conference on
Sept. 14th. Correct: He attended the conference on Sept. 14.

Dean
Capitalize only when it precedes the individual’s name or is part of another official title.

Degrees, degree programs


The University offers degree programs. Individuals earn degrees.

University Style Guide
University of Nevada, reno

Use an apostrophe in bachelor’s and master’s degree. Doctoral degree or doctorate is preferable usage.
Use Dr. only when referring to medical doctors. Note: preferred style for medical doctors is to use M.D.,
D.O., after the name. The patient was referred to John Smith, M.D.

Use capital letters and periods after the initials in most abbreviated degrees: Bachelor of Arts (B.A.), Master
of Arts (M.A.) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D). However, note MBA does not use periods after the initials.

Departments, office, association, etc.

department; he is a member of the history faculty.

Disciplines
Don’t capitalize unless derived from proper nouns: He studied history and English at Harvard; she is

applying to the doctoral program in environmental sciences.

Dr.
Reserve this title only for medical doctors, not those holding doctorates. Avoid using a title on first
reference. Instead specify what kind of doctor the person is: The society decided to honor Leonard Parr, a
cardiologist who runs a clinic for indigent people.

Do not refer to professors as Dr. College professors are generally assumed to hold doctorates. Not all do,
but it’s awkward to refer to some as Dr. and not others.

E
email
Lowercase the e and don’t hyphenate (Note: this is an exception to AP style.)

emeritus, emeriti, emerita


Emeritus is an honorary rank bestowed on retired University faculty. Always use the contruction “professor emeritus”
NOT “emeritus professor.” The title should be in lowercase; avoid constructions with the title before the name. Emeri-
tus and emeriti are the preferred singular and plural terms of professors of any gender. The feminine term emerita
may be used given the preference of the subject.

F
Faculty
Use the word faculty to refer to the entire group of faculty members at the University. In this sense, it is a
single word: The faculty is going to be surveyed. If you wish to refer to a few members of the faculty, then
say: Some faculty members will be surveyed.

Fund raising, fund-raising, fund-raiser


Fund raising is difficult. They planned a fund-raising campaign. A fund-raiser was hired. The organization is
planning a fund-raiser.

Months
