The ‘’New Seal” of Assumption (allege rpiiK “new skai. of Assumption Cou.eok which appears above, was created in 1920, by the Reverend John A Plomer. C.S.B.. a member of the college faculty, on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the opening of the college department by the Basilian Fathers. Born and educated in Fnghind. Father Plomer wa acquainted at first hand with the traditions of heraldic symbolism. I he shield tells briefly the origin and development of the college. The lower left-hand panel pictures the conversion of the Indians who occupied these shores when the missionaries first arrived. Chief “Big Turtle” of the lliirons. after his own baptism, helped the missionaries to eonvert the rest of the trilie. This is sym¬ bolized In his carrying the cross from wigwam to wigwam. It was he, too. who gave to the Church the prop¬ erty on which the college now stands, a title later confirmed hv the frown when the county was surveyed. I lie lower right-hand panel epitomizes Christianity and the life of Christ from the star of Bethlehem to the Cross of Calvary. I he upper left-hand panel containing the monogranimcd A. !.„ the initial letters of the A ' e Maria, commends us to Mary, the Mother of Cod. and the pat rones of the college. The upper right- luind panel, with the open hook has a twofold significance. Taken from the coat of arms of the Ba ilian fathers, it syniholiy.es the work of education and tells us that the college is in their charge. At the same time it represents our affiliation with the University of Western Ontario whose coat of arms also contains an open book. Filtered in the book are the closing words of the vc Maria, a king our Holy Patroness for Her inter¬ cession “now and in the hour of death.” I lie scroll surrounding the shield present , in the college colors of purple and white, the motto of all Basiliiin-eoiidueted schools: “leach me goodness, (self I-discipline and knowledge.”
