College Campus Police Patch — Order This Phoenix and Lamp Design
Design S0717A at a glance
A navy scalloped round with a phoenix set above a lamp of knowledge resting on a book — the academic emblem campus departments reach for when a plain star feels too municipal. A gold border traces every scallop, black detailing sharpens the emblem, and the lettering carries a department name, founding year, three-word motto and a second agency line, each restitched to yours.

About this phoenix and lamp campus design
The lamp of knowledge on a book is the oldest shorthand for a school, and the phoenix above it adds the protective note a sworn campus force needs — renewal and watchfulness over the institution. The scalloped edge softens the outline so it reads collegiate rather than tactical, while the navy, gold and black palette stays formal enough for commencement details and daily patrol alike.
Make it your department’s: set your institution and department name in the lettering, put your own founding year in its line, and swap the motto for your school’s words. The phoenix can also be redrawn as your mascot. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Who orders this design
University and college police departments order this scalloped round for sworn officers, while campus security divisions use the same layout with their own agency line. Schools with both sworn and non-sworn staff often buy two runs from one quote — identical emblem, different lettering — so every uniform on campus matches.

College campus police patch questions
Can the motto line carry our school’s own words?
Yes. The three-word motto, the department name, the founding year and the second agency line all restitch to your exact text, and the proof shows each line before production.
Can the phoenix become our school mascot?
Yes. Send a photo or vector file of your mascot and we redraw it above the lamp and book at no art charge — or keep the phoenix and change only the lettering.
Can we order it in our school colors?
Yes. Navy, gold and black is the drawn colorway, but any school palette works — preview it in the markup tool and your quote references that version.
What size works for campus bike-patrol uniforms?
Most campus departments order 3.5" to 4" for shoulders. For bike polos and lightweight shirts, iron-on or sew-on keeps the patch flat while riding.
How do I request changes to this design?
Use the "mark up this design" tool in the quote form: circle the emblem, pin notes on any lettering line, switch colors and upload your seal. Your marked-up version attaches to the quote automatically.
Comparing campus insignia or other starting points?
