The Mace, twenty-seven inches in length, is topped by a sterling silver sphere studded with circular
cabachon rubies, secured by bezels. The collar of the Mace is inlaid with ebony, alternated with silver
relief fleur-de-lis design elements. The cultured pearls mounted in cups encircle the bottom of the collar
symbolizing the thirteen state colleges of Pennsylvania. The shaft of the Mace is composed of Brazilian
Rosewood sections, separated by sterling silver rings. The Mace is terminated by a cast sterling silver
finial; the five cultured pearls represent the existing curriculums. The rib-like cone form is terminated
by a small silver sphere symbolizing the world.
The metal working processes incorporated in the Ceremonial Mace include: turning, forging, inlaying,
stone setting, and lost wax centrifugal casting.

The Presidential Medallion
A symbol of presidential authority, the first Presidential Medallion was presented to Foster F. Diebold
during the May 1981 Commencement ceremonies. It is permanently housed in the President's Office
and will be presented to successive presidents. Designed and executed by Mr. Henry Katzwinkel, assistant
professor of art, the sterling silver Medallion consists of a three and one-half inch pectoral pendant
featuring on its face the sunken crest of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. On the reverse side is
the figure of a Gordon Highlander with pipes. To the right of the piper is the Cross of St. Andrew. To
the left is the Cross of England. Flanking the figure is the date 1857, the opening year of the University,
and garland thistles. In the background are the hills of Scotland, and beneath the piper is an open book,
an image of knowledge.
The pendant descends from a shield containing a triple-towered castle, the symbol of defense,
protection, and strength. The collar of the medallion is comprised of a series of two-inch shields, alternately
bearing three different designs: the meigle, an interlacing knotwork peculiar to the Pictish school of
Celtic art; the 'Ibdo rose design; and "ESC" in interlocking letters on a backgroimd of tabby weaving.
Connecting each of the collar shields is a Cross of St. George, representing the union of Scotland and
England. The entire medallion was fabricated and cast in the cire perdue (lost wax) process.

ALMA MATER

Hail to thee, our Alma Mater glorious;
Fresh wreaths we bring to bind thy brow.
Trials have passed and thou has stood victorious;
Never fairer, never statelier than now.
0 Edinboro, Edinboro,
Ever praising thee in song;
While class speeds class as swift years pass,
Tb thee our hearts belong.
