The seal was designed in 1912 by Walla Walla College President Ernest Kellogg. It depicts the three phases of education as parts of an equilateral triangle; the mental, represented by a lamp; the physical, depicted by a plow; denoting the importance of manual labor; and the spiritual, 图片是一本打开的圣经. The stained glass re演讲 of the seal, which will be presented during the ceremony, 是一件历史文物. 在20世纪初, the window was displayed over the main entrance of the 政府 Building, where 学生 and faculty passing through the building's doors could be reminded of Walla Walla College's mission.
