To help celebrate this milestone anniversary, departments and organizations are encouraged to consider how any events they host may be tied into the 150th celebration, and they should work with the Office of Publications to incorporate the specially designed 150th logo into all printed materials and emails. Events should also be submitted to the Truman master calendar at truman.edu/event.  

Additionally, letterhead with the 150th logo can be used until June 30, 2018. For information about using the 150th logo and letterhead, email Winston Vanderhoof. Those who would like to incorporate the 150th celebration into their email signature can find details on how to do so at identity.truman.edu.
