In the recent past, the School has gathered most of its now 19 disparate academic programs within multidisciplinary centers of academic excellence. In effect, the School has been operating much like a quasi-university. Within the board's appoval, each of the School's current academic centers will have the opportunity to change its name to become a school. A new logo and graphic identity has been created for Claremont Graduate University. The flame icon in the CGU logo is reflective of the symbolic lamp of learning contained in the CGS logo.
All type is black.
The logo's open, clean, modern, solid, elegant overall appearance underscores CGU's positioning as providing contemporary graduate educational programs for our contemporary society. The Claremont Graduate School is a distinctive, comprehensive leader in graduate education. Its new name, Claremont Graduate University, strongly reflects its character.
