LEX PRO URBE ET ORBE, the Vermont Law School motto, translates as law for the community and the world.

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE SCHOOL SHIELD, MEDALLION, AND MACE The circlet from which the swan arises represents the attorney-encompassing Code of Professional Responsibility, with the pearls representing the nine canons of the code. The swan represents the dignity and strength fostered by the code and the faithfulness owed to it.

The medallion bearing the school shield, which is worn by the president and dean, was the gift of the Charter Class at the school’s first commencement. The president and dean wears the medallion on ceremonial occasions as the visible symbol of his high office and authority and in loving memory of the Charter Class.

The mace is the symbol of authority of the Vermont Law School Board of Trustees. Its figurehead is the charge on the school shield cast in bronze in three dimensions. The mace was presented to the trustees by Dean Thomas M. Debev- oise on June 4, 1976, at the dinner for trustees, faculty, and delegates the night before the first commencement. The mace is carried in academic processions by a marshal in front of the trustees and rests on the podium during formal ceremonies.
