-The Trinity seal dates back to the College’s name change from [[washington_college|Washington College]] to Trinity College in 1845. Parts of the seal reflect the College’s [[episcopal|Episcopal]] roots. The abbreviated Latin inscriptions read “The Seal of the College of the Most Holy Trinity” and the college's motto, “For Church and Country.” The shield is also crowned with a bishop’s miter. The Greek-revival façade represents the original [[seabury_hall_old_campus|Seabury Hall]], and the stars represent the 13 colonies, giving a patriotic nod to George Washington, for whom the old college was named. +The Trinity seal dates back to the College’s name change from [[washington_college|Washington College]] to Trinity College in 1845.
