Meaning and History
1976-1995 – The era of the round emblem in the form of a seal. In the center was the “HP” monogram, along the circumference on the inside were the words “High Point University.” 1996 brought radical changes. After the redesign of the logo, only a combination of the letters “H” and “P” with triangular serifs remains.
The 2004 logo looked completely different. Artists, for the first time in a long time, depicted a sports mascot: a panther. The predator released its claws and opened its mouth with sharp teeth. At the same time, she snuggled close to the word “Panthers,” wrapping her tail around it.
The final version of the emblem was presented in 2012. The world again saw the company monogram, now from three letters: “H,” “P,” and “U.” The general style has not changed, but the characters are tilted to the left, painted in purple and have asymmetrical serifs.
