Here is an Example...
Explanation of Patch The propelled rocket
represents the school system, supported by the
educators and students, following a path towards
excellence. The radiant five 4-point stars
symbolize the enrichment of Science, Engineering,
Communication, and Mathematics. Where as, the
seven 8-point stars represent for the seven
Universities that founded SECME. The three
distinct contrails steaming behind the rocket,
symbolize the support offered through SECME,
Universities, and Industry partners. The ring
before the rocket depicts the students path
through the SECME program, returning full circle
to support the efforts of the program. As we have
entered the new millennium, the sun over the
horizon symbolizes of the induction of the new
Water Rocket Design Competition into the SECME
Programs. Accuracy, the focus of the contest, is
represented by the target created by the outer
ring, deep space, and the earth. The border is
supported on the left and right by symbols,
respectively, for water and compressed air, which
are the fluids used to propel the rockets.
