The Darden Brand Story

Darden Brand Style Guide

NOT BUSINESS SCHOOL AS USUAL

The UVA Darden School of Business wants the word "usual" stricken from the business lexicon. Business must never be usual. It must always adapt and find new ways, better ways. Ways that bring more people together to create value. That's not just what we believe at Darden, but what we have always strived for.
