By REV. WILLIAM c. REPETTI, S.J. University Archivist The seal of Georgetown appears on the front gates, on the doors of the main entrance of the Healy Building, on the grill doors of the Healy corridor, in the Consti-. tution Room, in the White-Gravenor Building, on pro­ grams, on stationery, and many other places, but not always in precisely the same form with full details, and hence it may be of interest to examine into its origin and development. The Georgetown Archives possesses a copper plate, 3" long and 2 5/ 8" wide, and on it is engraved an oval seal, 1 7 / 8" long and 1 7 / 16" wide. A spray of myrtle is engraved on each side of the oval. The most prominent feature of the seal is an erect eagle, with wings spread and extended . upwards; in one talon it holds a terrestial globe and in the other a cross. In its beak it holds a scroll bearing the legend "Utraque Unum", and above the legend is a lyre surrounded by an aureole. Near the edge of the upper half of the oval are the words, "Ad Rip as Potomaci in Marylandia"; and near the edge of the lower half of he oval the words, "Collegium Georgiopolitanum." Stars have been adopted as symbols of the states of the Union, thirteen indicating the original states, and as each new state was admitt.::d to the Union a new star \. was added to the flag . . On the engraved copper seal in The First Georgetown Seal, adopted between 1796 and 1803. our Archives there are sixteen stars, and therefore we feel safe in assuming that there were sixteen states in That impression shows a round seal, 1%" in diameter, the Union when the seal was adopted.

We have been using the word "seal" in this article, While this old seal was still in what might be called and attention is frequently called to its resemblance to popular use, an official change had taken place. On June the "seal" of the United States.

Some persons have entertained a false impression that Georgetown College was granted the exclusive right to use a seal which so closely approxi­ mates the coat-of-arms of the United States. And 'some have been more specific by saying that this right was granted by the Congressional act of 1815 which granted the power of conferring degrees. The act of 1815 made no mention of a seal, and, furthermore, the State Depart­ ment issued a booklet in 1909, "History of the Seal of the United States," and on page 65 we find the state­ ment that "when the Continental Congress made the obverse of the great seal the national arms it intended that the device should pass into common use among the people, as the flag has done." This could easily explain why, as early as 1803, Georgetown had a seal which bore some resemblance to the coat-of-arms of the United States. It also explains why we see an even closer re­ semblance on a drum, preserved in the Georgetown Archives, which belonged to a Georgetown militia com­ pany prior to the Civil War. No exclusive rights were ever granted, or needed, by Georgetown College to use a seal resembling the coat­ of-arms of the United States. The Seal as it appears in 1952.

By THE VERY REVEREND HUNTER GUTHRIE, S.J. Read before the Meeting of The Association of American Colleges, !an. 9, 1952, Washington, D. C. Too often we are apt to think that the university's consciousness of its obligations to the public is of recent or even American origin. In this connection it may be salutary for all of us to remember that the Augustinian Friar, Martin Luther, was engaged in a co-curricular activity when he posted his theses on the Cathedral portals of Wittenberg. From both sides of our picture then, co-curricular activities have a serious and important his­ tory. It may interest you and, I hope, edify you to know what we are doing at Georgetown University in this broad, serious and historically fertile field. Much against our Founder's will, Jesuits began teach­ ing in Messina in 1548. Scratch a Jesuit and you will find a missionary. We are still by many thousands the largest missionary Order in the Church. This missionary preoccupation soon blended with our academic obliga­ tions by the institution of a co-curricular organization known as the Sodality. The Sodality is to the spiritual formation of our student what the honors course is to his intellectual formation. It provides both incentive and opportunity for the stu­ dent to develop not merely the moral virtues but a fairly elevated level of piety and interior devotion. But St. Ignatius never built up a store-house of spiritual energy without putting it to work. Hence the sodalists march out to work regularly. They either participate in or direct six centres of instruction in Christian doctrine. From the first bright May day back in the twelfth Other centres are maintained and staffed for the instruc­ century when some forgotten Prior-with his Abbot's tion of underprivileged children; others again for the permission, of course-opened the doors of his mon­ coaching of backward children, whose papas evidently astery for the local gentry to attend the dialectical dis­ are not up to handling the mysteries of homework.

To begin with, I might mention a sort of de luxe local gentry seated, as befitted their rank, but with the service which the University furnishes the public.

With the generosity born of admiration Alumni Association and affection, I shall now proceed to oblige. First, let me find the tree. Co-curricular activities in a · college or university are, first, spiritual; secondly, intellectual; thirdly, physical. We have talked about the spiritual activities. We have mentioned the intellectual activities. In an effort to rush on to my fore-ordained sacrifice, I have not mentioned dramatics, nor the campus publications of , the ENVOY, and the erudite College Journal, the Medical Bulletin, and the Law Jour­ nal. There are other activities, too, which I have for­ gotten but which I shall promptly be remi.nded of on my return to the campus, but there is this special grove of tennis, golf, swimming, sailing, la crosse, soccer, baseball, basketball, track, and football. Football, of course, is that main branch over there. The co-curricular activity which has furnished national prominence to many an indifferent educational institution. That is the tree, gentlemen, and I am now out on the branch. Here we are not concerned with proselytizing, subsidization, or, for the moment, even academic standards. We are all ·honest educators.
