Gonfalons
The five academic gonfalons on display represent the College and its four academic divisions. Gonfalons, which are banners hung from crosspieces on poles, have been used since medieval times as symbols of state or office. The navy gonfalon with the official College Seal represents the institution as a whole. The gonfalons for the four academic divisions display the division names and the colors associated with the academic disciplines of the divisions: Arts and Sciences – white and science gold; Business and Public Services – crimson, drab, light blue, midnight blue, peacock blue, and science gold; Health Education – apricot, gray, and sage green; and Engineering and Industrial Technology – orange and science gold.
MACe
The Tri-County Technical College Mace is carried by the president of the Faculty Senate, who leads the academic procession at commencement. Historically, the use of a mace dates back to the Middle Ages and was carried before or placed near a magistrate or other dignitary as an ensign of authority. In commencement exercises, the mace specifically indicates the authority of the College president to award degrees. The College Mace is made of pecan and brass and depicts the official College Seal. It was designed and manufactured by students in the Engineering and Industrial Technology Division.
