University Seal

The university seal commemorates UW-Whitewater's rich history. The seal includes an image of the bell tower from Old Main, which welcomed the first students in 1868. New wings were added to the original building in 1876, 1892 and 1925. On February 7, 1970, the building was lost to fire. The east wing - Hyer Hall - is the only surviving wing.
The university seal should be reproduced in black, purple or metallic gold on a white background. A metallic silver logo may be used on a purple background.
Use the seal only for official documents and occasions, not for everyday use.
Appropriate uses include:
- legal documents
- transcripts
- commencement materials
- diplomas
- UW-Whitewater Foundation materials
- stationery watermark
