The
University Seal and Dome Marks
The university Seal and Dome marks may be used on imprinted products,
but must not be distorted in any way. The marks cannot be used
by non-university entities for any documents, publications, etc.,
in a manner that suggests that the document is a publication sponsored
by the university.
Preferred
Nickname
The University of Southern Mississippi has adopted "Southern
Miss" as its official nickname. A majority of alumni, fans,
and supporters prefer the "Southern Miss" nickname.
Though
not preferred, names such as "USM" and the university's
full name will continue to be approved by the licensing department
for use on imprinted merchandise.
Nicknames
including "S. Mississippi," "SO. Mississippi,"
"S. Miss," and "Southern" are not acceptable.
Additionally, when using the university's full name, "The"
must be included in the title, i.e., The University of Southern
Mississippi.
Preferred
Eagle
Southern Miss has a preferred golden eagle. The preferred eagle
is our newly released primary mark, which can be downloaded with
permission from our licensing specialist, Gene
Fitts.
Usage
of Primary Mark and the Mascot Name
The use of our mascot name, Golden Eagles, must be used as one
entity.
Our
new primary mark may be used in two ways. The golden eagle head
may appear above the wording "Southern Miss Golden Eagles"
or may stand alone without the wording.
Other
uses are at the discretion of the licensing specialist, Gene
Fitts.
