Florida Gulf Coast Eagles: Brand overview
Meaning and History
The current emblem of the sports department was adopted in 2002. It contains standard elements: the mascot’s image and the university’s abbreviated name. The white head of an eagle is located at the top, closer to the right corner. The bird is directed beak down – possibly to show dynamism. The effect of movement is also created by the uneven lines, which depict feathers according to the artist’s idea.
The rest of the logo is occupied by the inscription “FGCU.” It is uneven and slightly curved. The letter “F” has two serifs on the left side. All letters are original and seem voluminous due to the green stripes on the right side. Like the bird’s head, the acronym is surrounded by a wide blue line.
