The Liberty Bell symbol (and replica) has been around campus for a long time. My great aunt paid money for it. :lol:

I get that, still doesn't warrant being on a university seal. It's a stretch.

No stretch at all. It's a historic symbol for the university and will become more prominent when the bells are added to the top of the tower.

I did not see what SJ... Jon saw. His "professional" eye naturally catches these types of things.
However
My App State grad coworker took a look at it and said it looked like a _ _ _ _ in the middle - I asked him to take a look at it and let me know what he thinks of our new seal.

Unfortunate that is the first thing people see when seeing what represents our school.

There is even a newer version of the seal that is not as busy: they have dropped the outer circle and the leaves at the bottom.

First reaction - here at Liberty, the Bible is a popup story book. Inside, the magical journey of Liberty University, the world's most exciting evangelical university; its greatness signified by one JR erect penis tower. It's Biblical.

Second reaction - I don't really care.

Third reaction - a bit surprised they did not incorporate a red sea. WE NEED A NEW NAME AGAIN!
