PC Athletics Set to Unveil New Logo on Friday, March 9

(PHOENIX, Ariz., March 2, 2012) – After several months of hard work, the new Phoenix College athletics logo is ready to be revealed to the public.

The unveiling ceremony will take place Friday, March 9, 2012 at noon. The brief ceremony will be at the CAVE (Center for Athletic Victory and Education) on the Phoenix College campus, 1202 W. Thomas Road. The CAVE is located on the west side of the North Gym (parallel with the staff parking lot).

Five rounds of new designs were viewed and processed by a logo review committee made up of representatives from various campus offices and departments. Shachi Kale, a local graphic designer, developed the new look. Kale, who also created and designed athletic logos for Mesa Community College and Chandler-Gilbert Community College, will be at the ceremony along with artist Kristine Kollach to meet and greet audience members. Kollach hand painted the designed logo.

A slide show presentation will be played at the unveiling ceremony describing the process and showing the design evolution.

The PC Athletics Department will be selling t-shirts with the new logo.

“This will be a proud and exciting day for Phoenix College and the Phoenix College Athletic Department,” said PC Athletic Director Samantha Ezell. “I urge everyone to come out to see all the hard work that was put into this project and how it has paid off in the final piece.”
