Satellite campus mascots updated

IUPUI has a mascot -- it is the home of the Jaguars. The Pioneers represent the IU East campus.\nAlong with those schools, IU Kokomo, IU South Bend, IU Southeast and IU Northwest all have mascots. \nRecently, through IU's Integrated Image Program, these mascots were "cleaned up" a little, said Lisa Townsend, director of University marketing and chair of the Integrated Image Policy Committee. \nThe Integrated Image Program allows all the IU campuses a chance to be cohesive and have a uniform visual identity, according to the Web site www.visualidentity.iu.edu.\nIU Bloomington did not receive a mascot, but Townsend said that is because no mascots were created, and all the upgraded mascots were pre-existing. Through the program, guidelines explain how to use the Block IU symbol and academic seal, and schools learn how to apply typography, colors and signatures to new and existing materials. \nThe new mascot logos -- the color and how the design should be displayed -- were approved by the IU board of trustees during a June 9, 2006, meeting, according to the Integrated Image Program's Web site.\nThe campus mascots were just a part of the effort to integrate the images as part of the visual identity project, Townsend said.
