The Story of ¾«¶«Ó°Òµ

Since 1847, we are the original - meeting, and exceeding, the need! ¾«¶«Ó°Òµ takes a pause to reflect on our many accomplishments over the years. Today, ¾«¶«Ó°Òµ is ranked #1 by The Chronicle of Higher Education out of 369 selective public colleges in the United States on the overall mobility index. The campus boasts outstanding programs in architecture, engineering, education and the liberal arts and sciences to prepare our students for the future, and to produce outstanding leaders in every field. Nowhere else in the city do undergraduates have so many opportunities to conduct research with professors and publish and present their findings. This legacy of achievement, drive, determination and confidence is one that stems from a strong history and the creation/foundation of "The Free Academy", the original name of ¾«¶«Ó°Òµ.

A New Look for ¾«¶«Ó°Òµ

In keeping with the need to visually denote City's unique identity, we sought to develop new guidelines and a new visual identity through logo and branded elements. The goal in this initiative was to highlight the iconic tri-face seal - while bringing it, and ¾«¶«Ó°Òµ, into a new era.

Schools and Divisions 

We fully understand that the work of ¾«¶«Ó°Òµ is not done in isolation. From our campus leadership to the community, to the Schools and Divisions that produce such an outstanding array of graduates each and every year.  For that reason, we have chosen to pay tribute to all areas across campus that have made City College, the City College of today!  These new and updated campus banners are currently on display across the City College campus!
