About this lighthouse and crossed keys campus shield
Campus departments want insignia that looks sworn but still belongs to the school, and the lighthouse does that work here: a beacon is a long-standing symbol of learning, while the crossed keys stand for the access and building security campus officers manage daily. Blue, gold and cream match the academic palettes many institutions already use, so the shield sits comfortably beside school branding.
Order it with your institution's name and founding year, change the motto to your department's own, or shift the blue and gold to your school colors. The lighthouse can be swapped for a campus landmark from a photo. 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.

Campus police officer patch questions
Can we put our school colors on this patch?
Yes. Thread colors are set per order, so the blue, gold and cream can become any palette your institution uses at no extra charge.
Can the lighthouse become a building from our campus?
Yes. Send a photo of your bell tower, gate or landmark hall and we redraw it in place of the lighthouse at no art charge.
Can we make a matching patch for non-sworn staff?
Yes. Keep the shield and emblem and change the lower line for campus safety or security staff — both versions fit on one quote.
Will the motto lines fit our department's own motto?
Short mottos of two to four words fit the existing lines. Longer wording can move to a banner, which your proof will show.
