A maroon-edged wax-seal shape in maroon, cream and gold, with a griffin holding an open book at its center. Lettering carries a college name, a security line, a two-word motto, an established year and a campus protective services line — an academic crest that still reads as security insignia.

About this griffin and open book campus seal
College security teams want insignia that looks like it belongs to the institution, and a wax-seal outline does that instantly — it echoes diplomas, letters and official documents. The griffin is a protector figure in heraldry, and putting an open book in its grip makes the role clear: guarding a place of learning. Maroon, cream and gold keep the palette collegiate rather than tactical.
Order it as shown or adapt it: put your institution's name and founding year in the lettering, swap the motto, recolor to your school colors, or replace the griffin with 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.

Campus protective services patch questions
Can the seal carry our institution's name and founding year?
Yes. The college name, security line, motto, year and services line all restitch to your wording, and the mockup shows each one within 4 hours.
Can the colors match our school colors?
Yes. Any field, border and thread color can change; try your school palette in the markup tool and the quote will reference it.
Can our mascot replace the griffin?
Yes. Send a logo file or photo of your mascot and we redraw it holding the open book, or on its own, at no art charge.
Is a blazer-pocket size available?
Yes. A 3-inch version suits blazer pockets; at that size the proof drops or shortens the motto so the rest stays legible.
How do I request changes?
Use the markup tool in the quote form to circle the griffin, book or lettering, pin notes and test colorways. The marked version attaches to your quote.
