Trademark Licensing

The Office of Marketing & Communication reviews the specifications for products bearing the Mississippi College name and marks.

The Office of Marketing & Communication oversees the Mississippi College trademark licensing program. The university governs the reproduction of MC trademarks on branded merchandise by reviewing all proposed products and applications of MC trademarks to ensure consistency and accuracy, pursuing unauthorized uses of university trademarks, and licensing companies to reproduce Mississippi College trademarks on branded merchandise.

Branded merchandise refers to any items produced for retail or promotional use. It does not include signage, stationery, or other printed collateral prepared for use by the university.
