Eagles Wordmark Logo
The North Carolina Central Eagles Wordmark logo has a rich and storied history that dates back to the early 1900s. The first official logo was created in 1910, featuring a bold block letter "NCC" with a small eagle perched on top. This logo was used for over 50 years and became synonymous with the university's athletic teams. In the 1960s, the logo underwent a significant transformation, adding the word "Eagles" in a cursive font and a fierce eagle head in the center. This logo was used for the next several decades and became a symbol of pride for the university and its athletic programs.
In 2004, the North Carolina Central Eagles Wordmark logo received a modern update featuring a sleeker, more streamlined design. The letters "NCC" were now in a bold, italicized font, with the word "Eagles" in a more modern and stylized font underneath. The eagle head was also given a more realistic and fierce look, with sharper features and a more intense expression. This logo has been used for the past 17 years and has become a recognizable symbol for the university and its athletic teams, representing strength, determination, and excellence.
Today, the North Carolina Central Eagles Wordmark logo continues to be a source of pride for the university and its community. It has become a symbol of the university's rich history and traditions and its commitment to academic and athletic excellence. The logo has evolved over the years, but its core elements of the eagle and the letters "NCC" have remained constant, representing the solid and unwavering spirit of the North Carolina Central Eagles. As the university continues to grow and succeed, the logo will undoubtedly evolve. Still, it will remain a beloved and iconic symbol of the university's past, present, and future.
