Gonzaga College High School - Washington, DC

From Wikipedia: Students do not step on a mosaic of the Gonzaga Seal, one set in the floor Dooley Hall, another in the much newer Collins Rotunda. Tradition states that students who do this will be "asked politely" by any seniors who witness the infraction to kiss the seal out of respect.

Does anyone know what is in the mosaic shield in dexter? I think it predates the Gonzaga name, when it was Washington Seminary.
