Design S0979A at a glance

About this columned hall and torch hexagon
The columned building is campus shorthand — an academic hall that stands for the institution itself — and the crossed torches add the learning symbolism universities favor. Set on a shield inside a hexagon, the stack reads as protective without borrowing a city department's look, and the maroon accent lets it echo a school's colors.
Shape it to your campus: put your university and department names in the lettering, replace the hall with your own landmark building, or recolor the maroon to match your school. 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 police departments, campus safety offices and medical-campus security teams order this hexagon when they want insignia tied to the institution rather than the town around it. Schools with a well-known hall or library often have that building redrawn for the center shield. Orders usually include a run for dispatch and security staff.

University police shoulder patch questions
Can our campus landmark replace the columned building?
Yes. Send a straight-on photo of the hall, library or gate and we redraw it for the center shield at no art charge.
Can the maroon change to our school color?
Yes. Maroon is simply the accent thread on this concept — swap it for any school color and the mockup shows the result.
How long can the motto lines be?
Two short mottos fit cleanly at 3.5 to 4 inches. A longer motto moves onto a scroll tab added below the hexagon.
Should we choose embroidered or woven for the columns?
Embroidery handles them well at shoulder size. If you want very fine column fluting or small text, woven reproduces it more sharply at the same minimum.
How do we request changes?
Open the markup tool in the quote form, circle the hall, torches or scrolls, pin notes and choose colors. The marked-up design attaches to your quote automatically.
Looking at other campus and department patches?
This hexagon is built for a university force. Departments comparing it with municipal shields, stars and K9 designs can scan the police patch collection beyond the columned hall and crossed torch hexagon in one place.
