Our Seal

Literis Dedicata et Omnibus Artibus

The seal of the University is not the official University of Nebraska–Lincoln logo or campus icon. Designed by our first chancellor, Allen R. Benton, it is today the primary graphic identifier for the University of Nebraska system, rather than the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. It is the only official seal for the University of Nebraska, as approved by the Board of Regents. The seal can be used on formal documents and certificates, but it cannot be changed in any way. It may be printed in black, a screen of black, or foil stamped.

Note

Departments, colleges and other units of the University of Nebraska–Lincoln should use the Nebraska N as a main identifier, not the University seal, on all publications, invitations, websites and other electronic media.
