“Elevate focuses on empowering our students with a values-based education and beyond-the-classroom opportunities to elevate their experiences, careers, communities, and lives,” said Dr. Todd A. Olson, Mount Mercy President. “Critical thinking, self-reflection, and our proud tradition of service create a strong foundation for our students to excel at and beyond Mount Mercy.”
The new brand pillars explore several meaningful impacts on students’ lives:
“Mount Mercy’s brand refresh was created based on feedback from students, employees, and alumni,” said Todd Coleman, Vice President for Enrollment & Marketing. “This is a campus-wide collaboration and celebration, and we’re grateful for the excitement it’s already generated.”
The brand refresh implementation is on a two-year timeline and includes new signage, print materials, digital ads, letterhead, and more. This hybrid approach allows the institution to minimize waste and expenses.
The new brand, visual identity, and messaging were created entirely in-house by the Office of Marketing & Communications.
