The University Seal, adopted during the institution's Golden Anniversary academic year 1983-84, was designed by Stan Holden, owner of Holden Design in Canon City.
The meaning of the graphic element is explained in Mr. Holden's own words: "The dominant symbology contained in the design is delineated by four open books and the radiating lines created by their pages. Such a juxtaposition of shapes forms a dynamic center of light and energy. Thus, the total design represents dissemination of knowledge and enlightenment for all students seeking an education."
