Two new—or at least new to me—coats of arms of institutions associated with Yale University.
First, St. Thomas More Chapel, the Catholic chapel for the Yale community, Argent on a chevron engrailed Azure between three moorcocks Sable as many crosses bottony of the field.

An elegant riff on the arms of the saint himself: Argent a chevron engrailed between three moorcocks Sable. The chapel adds crosses, the chevron becomes Yale blue.

Second, the newly reconstituted Yale School of Engineering and Applied Science: Azure a pall Argent between three gears Or, a chief vairy of two rows Or and Sable.
that is nice.
I like the one from St. Thomas More Chapel although I don’t care for the emblazon, but not so much of a fan of the school of engineering arms.
Back in the 90’s I briefly had a job in the Engineering & Applied Science Library. Their old coat of arms had been recently adopted, if I remember correctly, and it was everywhere. I can’t find a picture of it, but I recall it looked like an orange moon shining in a window.
