Alec
Alec is one of the most publicized and well-known traditions known to the Cockrell School of Engineering and The University of Texas. Over nearly 100 years, Alec has had his share of adventures; he's suffered kidnappings, amputations, even an arrest, followed by a pardon from Texas Governor James Ferguson. He's been repaired, de-commissioned, revived, replicated. And he has endured.
The Alec logo has been specially drawn and spaced and must never be redrawn or changed. The graphic should never be stacked or positioned in any way, other than that designated by the guidelines.
When reproduced in color the Alec logo should always appear in The Cockrell School of Engineering signature color, dark blue (PMS286) or burnt orange (PMS 159). No other color is acceptable, with the exception of all black for use on faxes, memos, and in newspapers, and all white for reverses on dark backgrounds.
The Alec logo should be used whenever it is appropriate to visually identify the School's development and fund raising activities. The logo must appear on the front or back of all publications and printed materials, all titles for films, videotapes and slide presentations, college web pages, and all official signage. Exceptions must be approved by the Cockrell School of Engineering Public Affairs Office. The logo also may be used for merchandising or promotional items.
The Alec logo is to be reproduced without modification or addition.
Graphic filters, such as drop shadows, bevels, 3D effects, embosses, or glows should not be applied to the Alec logo. Any manipulation or alteration to the logo is strictly prohibited.
