St. Kate's Window Signs

The St. Paul-based College of St. Catherine (the largest women's college in the U.S.) recently changed its name to St. Catherine University. They've done a great job rolling out coherent signage very quickly.

The university's new logo (designed by in-house art director Carol Evans-Smith) refers to a rose window from the campus's Our Lady of Victory Chapel.

I particularly like the metal, cut-out signs that appear at all the campus gates.

Apologies for the not-so-good photo. It's one of those things that looks best in person.
