How to make sure that your Lesley signature follows the Lesley University signature branding rules

Modified on Tue, Feb 13, 2018 at 10:53 AM

NEW LESLEY UNIVERSITY EMAIL SIGNATURE GUIDELINES:

 

· Use the email signature template provided by University Marketing to create your email signature

· The Lesley University logo is the only graphic that should be used in your email signature. Background images or patterns for emails should never be used.

· The standard university email font is Calibri, size 14

· No quotes or other language should be included in email signatures.
There are a few limited exceptions to this rule if the additional text is official Lesley University information and/or language. One example includes Advancement, where there is language inviting donations to the university below email signatures. If you would like to include text into your email signature please contact University Marketing for approval.

· Phone numbers should always be formatted with periods, not dashes


Firefox users: please use Safari or Chrome to copy and paste the templates below. Firefox does not carry the formatting correctly.
