WSU Foundation
The WSU Foundation uses a customized signature to recognize that it is a separately incorporated nonprofit entity in direct service to the University.
![]()
The Foundation signature consists of two elements: the logotype, which is the words Washington State University and Foundation set in the official ITC Stone Serif typeface, and the symbol, which consists of the letters W, S, and U arranged to form a Cougar head, framed by a crest that is accented by a chevron. The signature serves to identify the Foundation in all forms of communications, and its use preserves the integrity of the University's reputation for academic quality, innovation, and leadership in higher education.
A shortened version of the signature is available when the regular version cannot be used due to space limitations. The shortened version never should be used larger than two inches in width.
Use only authorized artwork when reproducing the signature. This ensures proper and consistent size and space relationships between the signature elements.
