Mike,
The charge in the 1st quarter is a dogwood blossom.
I’ve always thought this was an excellent candidate for a design award.
Mike,
This is from the Roanoke College student handbook:
ROANOKE COLLEGE SEAL
The seal of the college was redesigned by Professor Guy A. Ritter and approved by the Board of Trustees in 1964. The formal seal shows a blue shield emblazoned with a gold cross, representing the college’s relationship with the Lutheran Church. The lamp of knowledge sits above the shield. On the shield is a white dogwood flower, symbolic of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Latin motto on the ribbon beneath the shield honors academic achievement and translates as “Let him who earns the palm wear it,†symbolic of the palm leaf given in honor of excellence in ancient Greece.
