P.D.K.Coat of Arms
The three original organizations, Phi Kappa Mu, Phi Delta Kappa, and Nu Rho Beta, are represented in the coat of arms by the three keystones. The three stars represent the student, the home, and the school. Research is symbolized by the burning lamp and the book. Service is represented by the flaming torch, and leadership by the upraised hand and sword. Surrounding the shield are acanthus leaves with signify learning.
