We thought it was interesting, but maybe other people wouldn't think so. Just an observation.

Yeah, I'm like Issac Newton...making observations.
If you understood heraldry, then you would know that the shape and placement of charges and symbols on a coat of arms are chosen to denote meaning. The foundational principles of Kappa Alpha Psi and Kappa Alpha Order are distinctly different - nearly diametrically opposed. Therefore, any observed "similarities" between our respective coats of arms are strictly coincidental.

Sigma Phi Epsilon also has a "Journal". Many publications from that era have the word "Journal" in their titles. It is the equivilent of using "Times" or "Inquirer" in the title. There is nothing significant to be observed there.
