A history lesson on Cornell iconography, from the emblem bearing the \u2018I would found \u2026\u2019 motto to the Great Seal on your sheepskin<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Joe Wilensky<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

That diploma hanging on your wall bears a miniature artwork\u2014the Great Seal\u2014connecting it to more than a century and a half of Big Red history. It’s just a year younger than the University itself: trustees authorized the creation of a Cornell seal in 1866, at their fourth official meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Measuring two inches wide, the original seal bears Ezra’s profile, encircled by \u201cCornell University,\u201d \u201cFounded A.D. 1865,\u201d and \u201c\u2018I would found an institution where any person can find instruction in any study\u2019\u2014Ezra Cornell.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Cornell\u2019s first several decades, a small, hand-operated embosser was used to emblazon it on every diploma. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The process was eventually automated, but the device and seal survive, residing in the University Archives in Kroch Library.<\/p>\n<\/div>

But practically from the beginning, Ezra\u2019s profile adorned far more than sheepskins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Numerous novelties\u2014pennants, coasters, matchbooks, and more\u2014bore the Great Seal design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And soon after trustees approved the seal, a metal alloy copy was cast\u2014one that (possibly) continues to play a ceremonial role today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It debuted at A.D. White\u2019s 1868 inauguration, when New York\u2019s lieutenant governor placed it into his hands\u2014along with keys to University buildings\u2014after administering the oath of office. Now kept in a small wooden box in secure storage, the medallion is still brought out for display during presidential inaugurations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Or is it? According to University Archivist Evan Earle \u201902, MS \u201914, that object may in fact be yet another copy, perhaps recast for Cornell’s centennial in 1965. But in any event, it has pride of place when Big Red presidents are inaugurated.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the late 1800s, the Cornell Foundry cast a number of oversized versions of the seal\u2014some of which depict Ezra facing in the opposite direction from the original\u2014measuring nearly three feet in diameter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

They can still be seen around campus\u2014including atop Eddy Gate in Collegetown, at the Botanic Gardens, and over the McGraw Tower entrance adjacent to Uris Library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, a one-inch signet version, called the \u201ccorporate seal,\u201d omits the Ezra quote. It\u2019s used, according to Cornell bylaws, \u201cin the execution of all other instruments or official documents of the University requiring the use of a seal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the late 1800s, the Cornell Foundry cast several oversized versions of the seal, measuring nearly three feet in diameter. They can still be seen around campus.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

But whence the modern Cornell emblem\u2014the one you know so well, that adorns countless mugs, sweatshirts, baseball caps, paperweights, bumper stickers, and more?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the early 20th century, a faculty committee (chaired by \u201cTee Fee\u201d Crane, of \u201cGive My Regards to Davy\u201d fame) developed the now-iconic \u201cshield\u201d insignia, intended for non-official and decorative uses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It held two design competitions\u2014one cheeky submission reportedly comprised an ear of corn and a capital \u201cL\u201d\u2014and even awarded prizes, but judges remained unsatisfied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ultimately, the University hired a Philadelphia-based design firm; it created the shield-shaped, three-section emblem that trustees approved in 1911, and which more or less endures to this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It includes the U.S. shield and a portion of the New York State coat of arms above an open book bearing the \u201c\u2026 any person \u2026 any study\u201d motto, set against a carnelian-and-white background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the early 20th century, a faculty committee developed the now-iconic ‘shield’ insignia, intended for non-official and decorative uses.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The emblem was tweaked throughout the 20th century: the top of the shield was flattened, for example, and occasionally a wavy border was added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By the early 2000s, a streamlined version was created for online use and visual branding, but the detailed emblem endures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It can be found\u2014among other places\u2014on lecterns at official events; inset into the pavement below the Myron Taylor Hall archway; on a banner in the Willard Straight Memorial Room; and outside the Cornell Club in NYC<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And, of course, it graces countless merch items at the Cornell Store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
