Walton College of Business. This is designed to help faculty and staff maintain consistency, professionalism, and accessibility in every message.\nThis guide adapts the University of Arkansas’s \u0013 HYPERLINK \"http://brand.uark.edu/graphic-identity/signatures.php\" \u0014official email signature standards\u0015—outlined by University Relations—to meet the needs of the Walton College. By following these guidelines, you’ll ensure your emails maintain a professional, consistent look that reflects both our college and the university’s brand identity.\nAt a Glance Steps\nYour email signature should be treated like other forms of official university communication. For clarity and consistency, the following email signature format is recommended for university employees.\nStep by step Microsoft instructions are available for \u0013 HYPERLINK \"https://support.office.com/en-us/article/create-and-add-a-signature-to-messages-8ee5d4f4-68fd-464a-a1c1-0e1c80bb27f2\" \u0014Windows\u0015 and \u0013 HYPERLINK \"https://support.office.com/en-us/article/create-and-insert-a-signature-in-outlook-for-mac-f4d21492-0956-4429-95ad-2769745b539c\" \u0014Mac\u0015 clients.\nEasy Copy and Paste Instructions\nCopy the template below (from Firstname through YouTube) and paste into the signature preferences pane of your Outlook client, then replace the generic information with your own.

Include only contact information. This is especially helpful to those reading on mobile devices.\nAdditions indicating that the email content is private or confidential should be avoided. While specific exemptions may apply in some instances, university emails are public records subject to the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act.\nEmail signatures should not be created as single images because they are inaccessible and violate the guidelines of the Americans with Disabilities Act.\nTry to avoid the use of images. When needed, make images more accessible by adding descriptive ALT tags (alternative text) to each image.","cbCaiiVXvdrPeV9I","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiVXvdrPeV9I","docx",58185,"English","# Walton College Email Signatures\n## At a Glance Steps\n## Easy Copy and Paste Instructions\n## General Guidelines","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Walton College email signature guide?\",\"answer\":\"It helps faculty and staff maintain consistency, professionalism, and accessibility in every message by providing recommended signature standards and formatting.\"},{\"question\":\"How can users create an email signature in Outlook?\",\"answer\":\"The guide recommends following step-by-step Microsoft instructions for Windows and Mac clients, then pasting the provided template into the Outlook signature settings and replacing placeholders with personal details.\"},{\"question\":\"What general rules should be followed for the signature content and design?\",\"answer\":\"Use consistent, easy-to-read contact information with a concise layout, avoid adding private/confidential indicators, and don’t create signatures as single images.
