The name Central Washington University, the initials CWU, the university seal, logo variations including the wildcat mascot are registered service marks with the office of the Secretary of State, state of Washington. Usage of these service marks is protected by state law. They cannot be used for profit without permission of the university. FMD is responsible for the installation.

A standard design concept (family of signs) has been established for all permanent directional and wayfinding signs. To initiate a new exterior sign, complete the project request form found on FMD’s web page. Campus departments are prohibited from contracting with an outside vendor to design, fabricate or install exterior signage unless specifically approved by FMD.

A standard interior sign will include a raised room number with Braille. To initiate new or replacement interior signage, complete the project request form found on FMD’s web page. Inserts with the name of the person/department may be ordered from Wildcat Printing.
(C) Digital Signage: A digital sign is any permanent or semi-permanent electronic display device, interior or exterior, which delivers content in a public space. Digital content includes all visual or audio messaging conveyed by a digital sign. CWU has adopted hardware and content standards for all digital signs. To initiate a new digital sign, complete the digital sign plan found at Digital Sign Plan. The Enterprise Communication sub-committee is responsible for recommending digital sign plans to the Enterprise Facilities Committee.
