Institutional Visual Identity College Seal The Emmanuel College Seal is a specially designed form of the College name and may not be modified in any way. It was created by Chaignon La Rose, an artist and authority on ecclesiastical and college heraldry. Artwork for the seal is available as printed logo sheets in positive or negative versions or in electronic form. The seal must always be used on official Emmanuel College documents and external communications. Three white lilies suggest the Holy Trinity and the three vows of poverty, chastity and obedience of the Sisters of Notre Dame, as well as the fleur-de-lis of France, where the order began. The words “Seal of Emmanuel College of Boston” encircle the shield in Latin.
Emmanuel College’s affiliation with the Boston Archdiocese is represented in the three hills, long a symbol of Boston.
A gold-edged open book combines the academic and the religious. The inscription Emmanuel, or “God is with us,” appears in the original Hebrew.

Institutional Typefaces Print Typefaces There are two major typefaces designated for all printed Emmanuel College communications. The serif font family is called Sabon. For running text and most common needs, Sabon Roman should be used. Use upper- and lower-case with initial cap style for headlines and titles. Sabon Bold, Sabon Italic, and Sabon Small Caps should be used sparingly and for emphasis, where appropriate. Use only one level of separation between font styles (just bold or just italic, never bold and italic). And, never use more than three or four styles on most documents, in total. Use sans-serif font Frutiger when you need more separation between styles. Frutiger 45, 55, 65 and 75 are roman. Frutiger 46, 56, 66 and 76 are italic.
Serif Sabon Roman is the primary font for all Emmanuel College communications. Within the font family, Sabon Bold, Italic and Small Caps may also be used for emphasis.
