UNT Tartan

The university’s official tartan design was created by alumna Casey Heidt (’15) when she was a College of Visual Arts and Design student, as a lasting way to show green pride during UNT’s 125th anniversary celebrations and for years to come.
Heidt’s innovative tartan pattern represents a double-layered map, one of campus with the Hurley Administration Building in the center, and the other of Denton with the downtown square — the location of the first classes — in the center. The thick white lines and thin black lines represent streets. In 2014, UNT’s official tartan was accepted by the Scottish Register of Tartans and is featured on shirts, scarves, ties and other merchandise with local retailers. Proceeds will go to support student scholarships.
