About this lighthouse, laurel and swords college badge
A lighthouse is a guiding light and a lookout at the same time, and that double meaning suits a campus security team almost perfectly. Laurel adds an academic note, borrowed from university crests, while the crossed swords give the emblem a protective edge. Green, gold and cream look more like collegiate athletics than a guard uniform, which helps officers blend into campus life.
Order it as drawn or make it yours: put your college, campus and year in the lettering, change the initial to your school's letter, or recolor it in your official colors at no art charge. 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.

Green and gold college security patch questions
Can the colors match our college's colors?
Yes. Switch the green, gold and cream to your official colors in the markup tool; your 4-hour mockup shows the new palette.
Can the initial be our school's letter?
Yes. Any letter or pair of letters replaces the initial at no art charge.
Can the lighthouse become our campus landmark?
Yes. Send a photo of a clock tower, gate or hall and we redraw it with the laurel and swords.
Can we drop the crossed swords?
Yes. Some campuses prefer a softer emblem; mark the swords out and your proof shows the lighthouse and laurel alone.
How do I send changes?
Use the markup tool in the quote form to circle elements, pin numbered notes and switch colorways. The marked-up version attaches to your quote.
