INTRODUCTION
This is an academic service learning assignment where service and learning are combined in a civic engagement project for the good of the community The Stanford University Medical School is considered the most prestigious medical school in the world. Once of the school’s offerings is the Health Improvement Program, commonly known as HIP. The goal of HIP is to empower individuals and communities to strive for sustainable healthy lifestyles.
HISTORY OF H.I.P. The Health Improvement Program, more popularly referred to as HIP, began over 30 years ago with the creation the Stanford Prevention Research Center (SPRC). John W. Farquhar, M.D. received a large grant and focused his work on the health improvement of entire communities. This research established SPRC as a premier research organization. A few years later, research was beginning to show that worksite health and wellness programs could effectively impact the health of employees. Stanford President, Don Kennedy and John W. Farquhar believed the university should take advantage of its own intellectual property and created the Health Improvement Program in 1983.
Since its creation, HIP has advanced the science of health promotion on-campus, in the local community, across the United States and around the world. HIP’s educational programs and materials have benefited millions of people while serving Stanford University, the Stanford Prevention Research Center, and the School of Medicine.
Mission of H.I.P.
Project Objective
The Health Improvement Program, more popularly referred to as HIP, began in 1983 at the Stanford Prevention Research Center (SPRC). The Center was a pioneer in developing effective methods of health education and health promotion, including those for community-wide application. The Center’s founder John W. Farquhar, MD noted that these methods could be applied to help the employees of Stanford University improve their health, and with the aid of Stanford’s Benefits office, HIP was created. Since then, HIP has provided and expanded these services, primarily to Stanford employees and their families, but also to retirees, and, to a lesser extent, to surrounding communities.
Design a simplified, contemporary and politically correct logo for the Health Improvement Program. Explore the dynamics of logo design while gaining an understanding of why logos are expensive to create and continue to be the bread and butter of many design firms. Utilize your illustration & design skills that you garnered in your other art classes. Design a new logo/logotype for HIP. Create a symbol that is somehow integrated with the word HIP. The logo needs to be easily recognizable in both small and large formats. The logo must also be able to appear with and without full name. Health Improvement Program.
