Academic Seal

Academic Seal In an age of limited technology, wax seals were used to authenticate important messages. The academic seal continues to provide that level of authentication for Union University's most important documents. It is not displayed alongside any other university logo. It officially represents the Board of Trustees and its use is mandatory on degrees, catalogues, official communications and other important documents. The Board of Trustees approved this version in 2007, which replaces all earlier designs. The seal does not appear on products or clothing. Rare exceptions to this rule must be approved in writing by senior leadership.
