ETA: Here's a pretty cool stylized one on MSU's site. Not official, but fun:
Yeah, it's just a style thing. I have a sticker version of our COA that's more a of a blue and white outline. I think all of the pictures on the Kappa website have the colors that I found.

Alpha Phi's crest



  • Our colors, silver and bordeaux
  • 2 of our major symbols, ivy (at the top) and the Big Dipper/Ursa Major constellations. Ursa Major ("Great Bear" is the inspiration of one of our less serious symbols, the Phi Bear!
  • Lamps appear on a lot of COA's/crests/logos/imagery throughout human history, so make of it what you will.
  • The lowercase Greek letters below the ivy (alpha omicron epsilon) stand for our secret motto and also appear on our badge
  • The Greek phrase on the "banner" is our public motto, "Union hand in hand".

While we officially call this our crest, technically, I think a crest is only the thing at the top, so the ivy in this case, the bird on Theta's (eagle?), etc.
Sometimes I think ours is too plain -- almost too modern and clean-looking. What can I say, I love the flourishes on the sides of come COA's!
