SJSU's primary color palette is simple. Blue is most often used as a background and to colorize photos, for the most contrast and accessibility online. Gold is used as an accent color, used to brighten and pop. Gray is our neutral color from which gold, blue and white can pop. Use dark gray for body copy color. Anything "Spartan Spirit" oriented should incorporate the main colors.
