With circles stretching from coast to coast, it’s more important than ever for Omicron Delta Kappa to speak with one, unified voice. To help us all communicate the ΟΔΚ Idea effectively, we’ve developed some branding and editorial guidelines to help. Public relations and marketing chairs, as well as faculty advisors, should be familiar with these guidelines.
Colors, Logos and Typography
Have you ever been working on a document and wondered how to get the ΟΔΚ blue just right? Or maybe you’re choosing fonts for a document and want them to match what you see on our national communications materials. To keep things consistent, we’ve provided some design-related guidelines for you, as well as all of our logos, which are available for download.
Editorial Style Guide
Many large organizations issue editorial style guides to help its members understand some of the basic rules they follow when writing about the organization. ΟΔΚ is no different. For instance, did you know you should always write our Greek letters ΟΔΚ and not ODK? Whether you’re a student who’s new to ΟΔΚ, a faculty officer who’s been advising ΟΔΚ for decades, or an alumnus sitting on one of our advisory committees, it’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with our editorial style guide.
Stationery
We encourage all of our circles to complete their written and email correspondence using our brand. We no longer offer letterhead to circles but provide a letterhead template you can download here.
Brand Image Request Form
We prefer that circles use our licensed vendor whenever possible, but we can give permission to a local company to create apparel or other promotional items for the circle. Please review the brand guidelines above. If you seek permission to use OΔK registered brand images, submit this form.
