[edit] Fair Use Rationale

This seal is not free. The university sets strict guidelines on its seal, and covering its Fair Use in Kent State University is this rationale.

This logo qualifies as fair use under Wikipedia's copyright guidelines on logos as follows:

  • Under United States law, this logo, a trademark of KSU, may be used on other sites for purposes of criticism and commentary. The Wikipedia article serves to do just that. Furthermore, the trademark may not be used in an artistic or editorial setting. Its presence in the infobox in the KSU article is neither artistic or editorial.
  • There is no free equivalent, because one cannot be produced. The only allowable logograph is this logo, and any reproduction, digital or otherwise does not represent the university.
  • In no way does this inhibit trademark policies set forth by KSU. It cannot and will not be used to sell merchandise or propagate advertisement.
  • This is used once in one Wikipedia article. It is the highest resolution of the official logo available to the public. It is the only university logo published in KSU media.
