Significance of the School Pin 
This pin has been the symbol of our School of Nursing since September of 
1913. The antique lamp represents the metaphysical sciences. The telescope 
represents the physical sciences. The plow represents the industrial arts. The 
artist's palette represents the fine arts. These are the four dimensions of a 
Baccalaureate education. The crosses above and below are St. George's 
crosses, which have stood for "unselfish service' for centuries. We are proud 
of this 75 year heritage.
