Brand Bar and Header

The Brand Bar is the section at the top of official University websites that includes five key elements: a link to the University homepage, a University logo, utility navigation, search, and main navigation. The Brand Bar must conform to University Identity Guidelines.

Usage

The Brand Bar creates a consistent user experience across Columbia's digital ecosystem by:

  • Conferring the imprimatur of the University through a brand-compliant logo (lockup)
  • Adding a centrally supported interface that is updated regularly
  • Conveying the University’s reputation and prestige on each unit
  • Building a sense of community and University pride
