A simplified logo was introduced, replacing the Long Island map and the words "Long Island University" with the bold letters "LIU" and a triangle. The logo's upward triangle, the Greek symbol of delta, symbolizes upward movement and change. The names of LIU's six campuses also received shorter designations, uniting them under the new LIU brand. The C.W. Post Campus of Long Island University became known as LIU Post.
