KOBE COLLEGE LOGO
The Kobe College school pin was
designed in 1885, when Emily Maria
Brown was our third president, in
honor of our 10th anniversary.
| It was originally a simple trefoil,
symbolizing our ideal--the harmony
of body, mind and spirit. In 1904 we
added the letters "KC" to create
the logo seen today on pins, rings,
spoons and stationery. In the
anniversary year of 1885, too, dark
blue, symbolizing Peace and Truth,
became our school color, and the
school motto, "Love God; love your
neighbor," was chosen. In chapel,
we still sing hymn 380, "Stand Up,
Stand Up for Jesus," Emily Brown's
favorite, sung at her funeral.
