The statistics template can be found in the Brand Library under "Graphical Elements" in the  "Design Elements" folder.

Two more campus building icons have been added to the UO icon set in the expanded brand library in Canto. The two new building icons include:

  • Baker Downtown Center
  • Portland Skyline
