Heraldry of Columbia University (original) (raw)

About DBpedia

Columbia University represents itself using several symbols, including a university seal and a coat of arms. The seal was first adopted in 1755, shortly after the university's founding, and with few variations continues to be used today. The Columbia shield was adopted in 1949. Additionally, the individual schools of Columbia possess their own logos, most of which contain some variant on the King's Crown symbol. Exceptions to this rule include the College of Physicians and Surgeons, which in addition to a logo adopted a variant of the university seal, and the School of General Studies, which inaugurated its own coat of arms based on the Columbia shield in 1950.

dbo:abstract La heráldica de la Universidad de Columbia consiste en el sello oficial y el escudo de armas de la Universidad de Columbia,​ entre otros emblemas correspondientes a distintas entidades dentro de la institución. El sello de Columbia fue adoptado en 1755, poco después de la fundación del instituto (siendo en aquella época un elemento imprescindible para todas las universidades).​ El mismo sigue vigente a día de hoy, con muy pocas alteraciones realizadas a lo largo de su historia. El escudo de Columbia, en cambio, fue adoptado en 1949, cuando resultó necesario contar con un emblema oficial que representara a la institución, de forma similar a otras instituciones académicas. Mientras que cada escuela o facultad de la Universidad de Columbia ha adoptado una variedad particular del escudo de armas (en el caso de la Facultad de Estudios Generales, tratándose incluso de un emblema basado en el escudo original de la universidad, de 1950), el sello de Columbia es el mismo para todas las entidades que integran la universidad, salvo la escuela de medicina (College of Physicians and Surgeons), la cual usa una variedad propia del mismo sello. Se trata del primer sello universitario de Estados Unidos en emplear palabras tanto en latín como en griego, y el único que las combina con palabras en hebreo.​ Las tres se consideran lenguas clásicas por las universidades norteamericanas.

The King's Crown is one of the most popular and pervasive symbols of the university, and is currently used as the school's official logo. It traces its roots back to a copper crown that once surmounted Columbia's first building, and since the early 20th century, it has become a frequent design motif on campus and closely tied to the university's identity. It is incorporated into the logos of most of the university's individual, schools, with the exception of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, the School of General Studies, Columbia Business School, and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences.
