Use of “Red Hawk” and “Hawk”
Our official athletics nickname is the “Red Hawks.” The following are the guidelines for proper use of “Red Hawk” or “Hawk” as well as the use of the Red Hawk icon.
Titles with “Red Hawk” and “Hawk”
To avoid overuse of Red Hawk and Hawk in the name or title of a program, service, event etc., all such proposed uses must be approved in advance by the Office of University Communications & Marketing. The approximately 40 uses as of October 2020 are allowed to continue. Any future use must be requested in writing in advance and include a justification.
Writing “Red Hawk”
- “Red Hawk” should always be written as two separate words.
- “Redhawk” and “RedHawk” are unacceptable.
- The “R” in Red and the “H” in Hawk should always be capitalized
