Tools to Use

When communicating on behalf of LSU Athletics, it is important to present yourself in a professional manner that is consistent with the university’s brand. Please include your full name, title, department name, office phone number, email address and the LSUsports.net and LSUtix.net websites in your signature as shown in the samples below.

  • You may include the LSU logo image as seen below. No other images are permitted unless you are a sport-specific staff in which case you may include your sport logo.
  • Recipients may also expect to see your mobile number, department web address, and links to department social media accounts. These are optional and permitted.
  • Personal web pages, logos and quotes are not permitted. Approved team or department taglines, such as “Geaux Tigers,” are permitted.
  • As all emails sent and received from an lsu.edu address are subject to open records laws, disclaimers or confidentiality statements are unnecessary and should not be included in your email signature.

Athletics Letterhead

Similar to physical stationery, digital letterheads are produced from approved templates to ensure consistency. The layout of the letterhead may not be redesigned. This template for digital letterheads is to be used only for communications sent via e-mail or other digital platforms. It is not intended to replace official university stationery. Digital letterheads should not be printed out and used for mailing, as the integrity of the colors and branding could be compromised. It contains low-resolution images and does not reproduce well when printed, especially due to the fact that color reproduction varies from printer to printer.

Digital letterheads may be department-specific, but the header should not include personalized names. After you create your body copy, simply export the file as a PDF to send out. The only font you should use in the department name and the content of your letter is SF Display (San Francisco).
