Fraternity and Sorority Arms, Seals, Flags and other Insignia

[Psi U MC Vito]

The whole thing is the coat of arms. The crest is just a small part of the actual CoA though the CoA as a whiole is usually incorectly called the crest. The crest is the object that is above the shield. In the case of Theta is would be the eagle? holding the badge in it's mouth.

Thanks! Yes that would be the crest, indeed. Now I will not forget that fact.

Anyone else see the similarities??

The color of the COA and the band of stars, are really the only similarities, the ribbon underneath is pretty standard I think. And I think when done more accurately the colors would be more distinct. Ours is maroon, theirs scarlet, and our band is not green. It's just faded looking in that image.
