CHALLENGE
Alexandria Technical and Community College, in Alexandria, Minnesota, needed a rebrand to appeal to a new generation of prospective students. Additionally, with new and growing athletics and activities programs, the school needed a mascot and athletic brand.
SOLUTION
Through discussions with faculty, staff, students, and community stakeholders, and research into the history of the school and its region, a new brand was implemented. To simplify the naming and further position it as a quality educational institution, Alexandria College was selected as the new go-to name for all communications. With this in mind, a new logo and wordmark were developed. Building upon the logo, a mascot capitalizing on the area's Nordic and Viking roots while maintaining an inclusive feel was created. The brand and mascot was launched do great excitement within the student body and the citizens of Alexandria.
