PSU-Branded Tools and Templates
University Communications provides a visual style guide, messaging guidelines, logos, photos, and templates for employee use. Please visit PSU Tools and Templates to access these resources. You must be logged in with your PSU account to download view or download these files.
A few particularly useful key resources are:
Photo library and photo/video consent forms (English, Spanish, Russian)
PSU's official font family is Acumin. This is a paid font, but it comes included with Adobe Creative Cloud subscriptions.
Alternative font options are Archivo and Oswald, which are free through Google Fonts and may be used in any Google files, including documents and slide presentations.
The PSU website uses Montserrat.
If you have questions about, or trouble with using, any of these resources, please reach out to University Communications.
COE Branded Marketing Materials
COE Branded Marketing Materials
The College of Education provides a number of resources for faculty and staff to share information while adhering to brand guidelines.
Flyers
Flyers
These flyers are designed to print on a standard sheet of 8.5"x11" letter-size paper. PSU brand guidelines and accessible navigation features are built into this template for ease of use. There are six layouts (below) included for you to choose from, which you can access by right-clicking on a slide and hovering over "Apply layout". The first page includes basic usage guidelines.
Visit COE Flyer Templates to create a copy of the document for your use.
Website
Website
The PSU website is maintained by the Recruitment and Admission Services team in the Dean's Office. It is intended to primarily serve prospective students, followed by a general audience. If you have information to share with a more specific audience, such as a current student cohort, we recommend providing that information in Canvas.
COE employees in the "COE Vanport-Based Faculty & Staff" and "COE Program Coordinators" Google Groups may now request updates to the website via Google Docs. This allows us to maintain a history of change requests while also providing employees with a standardized method of making requests as clearly as possible.
Navigate to the Google Shared Drive “COE-Web”.
Select the folder "COE /education".
If you would like to update a Helen Gordon Child Development Center webpage, in step 2, please select the folder “HGCDC /helen-gordon-center" instead.
From here, locate the document that reflects the page you’d like to update:
All content for academic programs and their admissions and program details pages can be found under the "Programs" folder in alphabetical order by program name.
All other website content can be found in the “Non-Programs” folder in order of the pdx.edu/education menu structure, from the left to right. In example, 1. Become a Teacher reflects the first item in the menu; 1a. Become a Teacher > Choose a Track reflects the first link under that menu item, and so on.
If there is a page you will update frequently, we recommend starring it for quick reference, or adding it to a Workspace.
4. Once you have located the page you’d like to edit, please switch to Suggesting mode if it is not already your default option and make the relevant changes in the document:
If you are pasting content from another source, such as an email or another document, please paste without formatting. You can do so in the following ways:
Mouse: right-click » “Paste without formatting”
Windows: CTRL+SHIFT+V (instead of CTRL+V)
Mac: CMD+SHIFT+V (instead of CMD+V)
Google Docs menu: Edit » “Paste without formatting”
5. Once you have completed making your changes, please tag @daryn@pdx.edu and check the box to assign to Daryn Lee in a comment to let them know you’re done.
Once your request is received, it will be reviewed by relevant stakeholders. If the suggestion is resolved by being accepted, the change has been made on the website. If it is rejected, a reason will be provided in reply to the comment.
For a step-by-step example with visuals, check out Requesting COE website updates in Google Docs in Tango!
To update your 1–3 paragraph biography (written in third person), please email Daryn Lee with the changes you’d like to make.
To update all other directory information, including your title, office hours, location, CV, photo in the header, and personal website:
Sign in at oam.pdx.edu
Click on [Directory Profile] at the bottom of the page.
Make your desired changes and click [Submit Changes] when you’re done.
Changes may not display immediately, so please give the directory a day or two to reflect the updates. Daryn is not able to update directory information on your behalf, as external entries are overridden by what's in OAM.
Google Sites
Google Sites
Anyone with a PSU account is able to create a Google Site. However, we strongly request limiting the content on these to information for students currently enrolled in a program. Duplicating admissions information on a Google Site that is already found on the pdx.edu enterprise site can cause confusion for students who may stumble on both and find potential discrepancies, as well as dividing search engine traffic and reducing visibility to the pdx.edu website. The pdx.edu website is maintained regularly.
If you have questions about these COE resources, need to create a brand new webpage, or aren't sure where to begin and would like to discuss your options, please contact Daryn Lee.
