Our Emblem


Our society has for its emblem the scroll, the stylus, the beehive, and the characters K (Kappa), D (Delta), P (Pi). Many of the treasures of antiquity, which form the foundation of modern education, rest upon scrolls of papyrus. The golden scroll, therefore, is the foundation of our emblem. The shaft running through the scroll is the stylus, the first form of instrument known to be used in making letters and figures. The beehive symbolizes toil. The characters K (Kappa), D (Delta), P (Pi) represent our motto -- Knowledge, Duty, Power -- words expressing the whole meaning of our educational ideals.
