Stanford University Emblem

Stanford uses four primary emblems as part of its visual identity: the Stanford Signature, the University Seal, the Block ā€œSā€ with Tree and the plain Block ā€œSā€. These are combined to create various signatures for use on stationery and other communications.

The Block "S" with Tree is the symbol most proprietary to Stanford. The tree is a simpler graphic rendition of the Palo Alto seen on the Stanford seal. Like the seal, it serves to create a sense of place: a western, California location, unique to Stanford.
