It is how ASU’s brand essence is communicated and informs brand behavior. It keeps ASU’s brand communications and creative manifestations consistent, unified and complementary. The Brand Guide is maintained by the Enterprise Marketing Hub with the support of our robust ASU design and communicators community. To view additional information, visit brandguide.asu.edu.
Writing style guide
The Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College Writing Style Guide offers practices the college follows for all outward-facing communication, including the MLFTC website and newsletter, emails and other correspondence, books and brochures, presentations and posters, and advertising.
With a few exceptions, it follows ASU’s universitywide style guide. That guide, also with a few exceptions, follows practices from the Associated Press Stylebook. The MLFTC guide is not intended as a resource for academic writing, which usually follows American Psychological Association style.
Photography and video
Faculty and staff headshots
View the ASU headshot office hours calendar. You can stop on the Tempe campus during any of those times without making an appointment. The photo will take 5–10 minutes. If you have any questions, contact photography@asu.edu.
Downloading photos

Releases
Anyone taking photographs on behalf of the university, on university property or at university events must obtain a signed model release form from any individual who is recognizable in the photograph. Photo releases are archived and stored by MLFTC. Please return signed forms to michael.hailey@asu.edu.
Video policy
Video equipment is available for checkout to any faculty or staff member within MLFTC. University-owned equipment may be used only for university purposes. No exceptions are made to this policy. Available equipment includes photographic and video cameras, microphones, and lighting equipment.
Checking out video equipment
- Gear is checked out and returned to S321, FAB Building, ASU’s West campus.
- The maximum checkout period is seven days.
- If you have reserved equipment and do not pick it up by the originally scheduled time, the equipment will become available for others.
- On-time return of borrowed equipment is crucial, as common-use equipment is often needed immediately upon return.
- All requests will be fulfilled on a first-come, first-served basis. The earlier you call in your request, the more likely we will be able to accommodate your requested dates.
How to request video equipment
- Contact Mike Hailey at least 48 hours in advance at 602-496-1741 during business hours. You can also email michael.hailey@asu.edu.
- Include the following information:
- Specific items (and quantities of each) that you need
- Date and time you would like to pick up and return items
- Purpose for use of the equipment
- Location of planned event
- Your name, ASURITE ID and contact phone number
Lost, stolen or damaged equipment
The individual who checks out the equipment is responsible for the equipment and all included items. According to ASU PCS 902: Personal use of University Equipment and ASU Policy Number 5-308: Student Code of Conduct, the “individual responsible” will be billed for any and all equipment, lost, stolen or damaged.
Events
A lot goes into planning an event — especially if it’s your first time. The MLFTC marketing and event team is here to help and guide you. Before meeting with us, review these documents.

Email signature
To maintain and share a professional and consistent email signature across the university, an easy-to-use signature generator has been developed by the ASU Print and Imaging Lab. It offers tips readers will appreciate, such as not adding graphics to your signature, as these appear to smartphone users as attachments that must be downloaded.
The Print and Imaging Lab’s generator will configure your information into ASU’s recommended standardized email signature format.
