Use of Monmouth College Name or Logos
2008-2009
Reproduction of College Name or Logos
Monmouth College owns exclusive trademark rights to the Monmouth
College name, corporate logo, athletic logo and college seal. Vendors
wishing to reproduce the College name or logos on commercial products
must first obtain a license through the College's licensing agent, the
Licensing Resource Group, Inc.
Use by Students or Student Organizations
Any use by students or student organizations of the Monmouth College
name or logos on printed or promotional material without advance
approval by the College administration constitutes trademark
infringement and is subject to legal and/or disciplinary action.
Students or student organizations wishing to use the Monmouth College
name or logos on printed merchandise are also required to use a licensed
vendor. A list of licensed vendors is available from the Office of
College Communications, ext. 2314.
Implied Use of Name
Trademark infringement applies not only to the unauthorized use of the
college name, but also to the unauthorized implied use of the college
name. For example, a T-shirt produced in conjunction with any Monmouth
College-sponsored event or activity (e.g., Scots Day) must receive
advance institutional approval, even if the Monmouth College name or
logo does not appear on the shirt.
Enforcement
Individuals, groups and vendors who are involved in the creation
and/or production of a product with the Monmouth College name, logo or
their implication without authorization should expect a response from
the College either legally or disciplinarily. All questions about the
use of name and logo should be addressed to the Office of College
Communications, ext. 2314.
