Alternate Color Palette

Four alternate combinations of blue and gold provide flexibility while maintaining the integrity of the UMKC brand. While the primary color palette is the preferred use of blue and gold, these color "pairs" can be used as an alternative to or as accents to the primary color palette where appropriate. For specific guidelines in using the alternative color palette, see the following sections:
Implementation for University-Based Materials;
Implementation for School & Unit-Based Materials;
Implementation for Affiliates, Event-Based and Other Materials; or
Implementation on the Web
