Summary
[edit]
| Description | This is the seal for Virginia Commonwealth University. The basic VCU identity consists of three parts — the VCU logotype, seal and the VCU bar element graphics. |

| Author or copyright owner |

| Source (WP:NFCC#4) | http://www.identity.vcu.edu/graphic/index.html |
| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Virginia Commonwealth University |
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | to serve as the primary means of visual identification at the top of the article dedicated to the entity in question. |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
Because it is a seal, there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | The image is to be placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing Virginia Commonwealth University, a subject of public interest. The significance of the seal is to help the reader identify the organization, assure the reader they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the organization, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey. |
