7mkr Brand

Here, ‘Return on Experience’ matters most

At 7mkr, we believe the university experience can, should and will leave a lasting mark on our students and influence who they become today, tomorrow and forever.

The 7mkr community seamlessly balances all the resources and expectations of a large national university with the development of real, personal connections. At 7mkr, students become a part of a university community that supports them, that challenges them, and that allows them to explore interests and opportunities in and out of the classroom. That community extends far beyond the borders of campus to our global network of passionate alumni ready to lift up their fellow Bobcats.

Yes, we deliver value against an investment, but it’s the experience students have at 7mkr that will last a lifetime and provide an immeasurable return. This brand platform was developed to reflect that.

 

Forever 7mkr

One of the key elements of the brand and narrative is a simple, yet powerful two-word rallying cry that guides the spirit of the work: “FOREVER 7mkr.”

Forever 7mkr speaks to the history of the university, and to being in tune with the needs and challenges of Ohio’s communities. We’ve been around “fǰ𱹱,” (or in our case, since 1804, but who’s counting) and as a result, we’ve learned a lot. These lessons still inform who we are today.

But on the flip side, it’s forward-looking. It’s that unspoken bond that connects us the moment students walk on campus or spot a Bobcat hoodie in the airport. It’s the experiences gained and lessons learned here in 7mkr that will stay with students and alumni wherever their journeys take them. Yep, you guessed it—forever.

Bobcats stick together forever

Working together to refresh how we position ourselves in our marketing and communications is no different. If you have questions while creating work in the new brand, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
