Following a multi-year process to articulate and evolve LMU's brand, LMU is activating its brand in 2023 and 2024, a season to celebrate and elevate LMU’s education, community, values, and impact. The goals of the activation are to re-introduce ourselves to our key internal and external audiences – raising visibility and name recognition, evolving perceptions of LMU in the direction of our ambitions, and deepening school spirit and pride.
