Electronic signatures are a great way for the College to relay a consistent image. While there are no official guidelines for signatures, it is suggested that you do not use an attached image as a signature, since email
systems and users may inadvertently read those messages as spam.
In addition, it is recommended that you use our abbreviated name, SUNY Potsdam, as well as provide a link back to www.potsdam.edu. Other pertinent information to include on your email signature includes your full
name, College address, phone number with area code and email address.
Finally, it’s much easier to read Verdana and Arial fonts on the web. We suggest these sans serif options as opposed to serif fonts such as Times New Roman when sending email messages.
Sample email signature, which you can copy/paste should you desire:
Name
Title
SUNY Potsdam
44 Pierrepont Ave.
Potsdam, NY 13676
(315)267-xxxx
email@potsdam.edu
