Note that UBC has hex codes and RBG codes that don't match. I used the hex codes. A spreadsheet doing the math is in E:\projects\WebDesign\Colors.xlsx
Icons
There are some very good icon repositories online. I used https://remixicon.com/, which provides icons under the Apache license. Specifically, I chose (show in 48px):
book-open
user-3
