Xander—Thanks!!  The shield (usually without the surrounding lettering) was all over town, both architecturally & on sweatshirts & etc., & a constant joy each time I saw it.

Ken—you’re local—does Centre College in/near Bowling Green (my late father’s alma mater) sport arms?  All I can recall is a seal of sorts, but can’t recall details.

I have only ever seen Centre College (Danville, KY) use a seal. But I’ll investigate.

You’re right, it’s Danville.

Thanks for looking!
