You may have noticed some big changes to campus marker signs this week.<\/p>\n
New college signs are going up in the next few weeks celebrating our new college visual identity marking the entrances to campus at Uintah Street and Cascade Avenue, Uintah and Nevada Avenue, Nevada and Dale Street, and Cascade and Dale.<\/p>\n
The new signs will be installed just in time to welcome many parents, visitors, and alumni for Commencement, and demark our new campus boundary that now extends to Dale Street to encompass CC\u2019s alliance with the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center.<\/p>\n
The updated campus markers are part of the college\u2019s new sign system that was presented to the campus and approved in 2016. The system converges the goals of the Campus Master Plan\u00a0<\/a>and the Master Communications Plan<\/a>, both integral components of the college\u2019s main strategic plan to celebrate our sense of place \u2014 as well as an effort to unify all campus signs under one clear, cohesive system. A black square or block with white letters \u2014 representing the Block Plan \u2014 is the base component of most new signs.<\/p>\n The old stone \u201cheadstones\u201d with the college\u2019s former wordmark will come down as the new campus marker signs go up. Other major components of the sign system have already been installed, including the new, red Fine Arts Center \u201cblock\u201d on Dale and Cascade, and a prototype of major campus \u201cblock signs\u201d placed at Cutler Hall. Look for other major updates throughout the next academic year, including more block signs, new building signs, and all new numerals for building addresses.<\/p>\n Materials from the former stone markers will be placed in storage and used for future projects around campus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" You may have noticed some big changes to campus marker signs this week.
