Rooted in Legacy. Designed for the Future.
For the first time in its history, the Nashville Fisk University Alumni Association (NFUAA) has an official logo, and it says a lot without saying too much.
It’s bold. It’s intentional. And just like a Fiskite, it moves with purpose.
A Design That Honors Where We Came From
At a glance, the logo is clean. Straightforward. NFUAA in all caps, split on a diagonal that feels less like a break and more like a rise. Look closer, and you’ll see the meaning unfold. The top half in navy represents tradition — the depth, dignity, and academic excellence that defines the Fisk legacy. The bottom half in gold leans toward aspiration — a nod to elevation, future moves, and the brilliance that continues to grow from our roots.
It’s a visual metaphor: history meeting momentum.
The Steeple Stands Tall
Now, we couldn’t represent Fisk without referencing one of the most iconic structures in Black higher education. The final “A” in the logo features a stylized Fisk Memorial Chapel steeple, quiet but powerful.
It’s not just architectural flair. It’s a symbol of guidance, of reflection, of community. A north star for generations of alumni who still carry those values with them.
Designed With Vision
The logo was created by Tracy Harris, a creative strategist who understood the assignment: design something that works in digital spaces, on event banners, lapel pins, hoodies, and social posts — but still feels deeply Fisk.
This mark isn’t trendy. It’s timeless, and for a first logo, it doesn’t just introduce NFUAA visually — it helps claim space for alumni to gather, celebrate, and grow.
Why It Matters
This moment is bigger than branding. It’s about identity. About giving our alumni network a clear, unified look — something that reflects our story while pushing us into new chapters. The logo serves as a visual handshake for anyone interacting with NFUAA — whether logging into the new site, attending an event, or wearing it on a tee.
It says: We are here. We’ve been here. And now we’re building with intention.
Welcome to a new era. Same Fisk pride. New visual language.
