Use of Logos

Institutions may use NSSE, FSSE, or BCSSE logos in their efforts to encourage students to participate in the survey. Institutions have used the logo on promotional materials such as:

• posters and flyers
• radio announcements
• Web site news items or e-newsletters
• YouTube videos
• slide presentations
• computer lab screensavers

Logos can also be incorporated into reports or studies of how NSSE results have been disseminated across campus, in Web displays of NSSE results, and in recruitment materials.

Find examples of materials that encourage survey participation and both print and Web examples how institutions have shared their results.

We encourage you to send us examples of the materials you are producing which feature any of the survey logos. Please contact your project services team for details.
