Outlook Email Signatures
Signatures are a reflection of the University. Limit content to work-related information. Length will vary due to your business needs but should be as compact as possible.
Typeset emails in a sans serif font, such as Arial, at 10.5–14 points, with the body at the larger end and the signoff at the smaller end.

Note: The email logo, which is 2.5” wide (175 dpi), will not align with the text above. The .jpg file includes an opaque background so the logo is viewable even in Dark Mode.
Policies
Be professional. Signatures may not include quotations, political, philosophical statements or similar.
Be relevant. A physical address is needed only if you receive frequent guests. A fax number is needed only rarely. An email listing is redundant.
Use only the brand logo. No other icons or images are allowed.
Exclude signatures or use a short alternate version without the brand logo for internal use, replies, and forwards.
Link to the 黑料门domains. Maintain biographical information, including new titles or promotions, research, and publications, on your area’s 黑料门web page. Keep redirects short by using the phrases “黑料门 me,” “My research,” and “My publications.”
