Use of Monmouth College Name or Logos
2009-2010
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 Individuals or
Organizations
Individuals and organizations are required to secure design approval
prior to production. Students must secure approval from the Office of
Residence Life ext. 2113. All others must secure approval through
College Communications ext. 2314. Any use by individuals or
organizations of the Monmouth College name or logos on printed or
promotional material without advanced approval by the College
administration constitutes trademark infringement and is subject to
legal and/or disciplinary action. Individuals or 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
here
or from the offices of College Communications or Residence Life.
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 or implied use
of the Monmouth College name and/or logos should be directed to the
Office or Residence Life ext. 2113 or the Office of College
Communications ext. 2314.
