UB Visual Identity Guide
Stationery
UB stationery is available to all UB faculty and staff; it may be ordered from University Print Services by calling (716) 829-3528 or by visiting their Web site.
Although all faculty and staff members may order UB stationery, there are certain restrictions for particular pieces of stationery. For more information on these, see the individual sections on the various pieces of UB stationery. If you feel that you have a persuasive reason for deviating from these guidelines for business cards, please contact the Graphics Review Panel.

The order in which the two names appear on stationery is a matter of individual preference; however, both names must be written in the standard Frutiger Roman font, and the uppermost name is always the name printed in bold.

- Faculty members who have attained the rank of UB Distinguished Professor, SUNY Distinguished Professor, SUNY Distinguished Service Professor, or SUNY Distinguished Teaching Professor
- Individuals who are endowed chairholders or who hold endowed professorships
- Individuals who are editors of journals that are housed at the University at Buffalo
