The primary Mount Royal logo reflects our direction as a university as well as our long tradition in higher education. The three folding forms represent open books — classic symbols of education and learning. They also reflect open doors — suggestive of possibilities, opportunities and access to higher education, all core principles of Mount Royal University. The three forms unite to present the letter “M,” representative of Mount Royal and its integrated community of students, faculty and employees. Together, the three forms also create a subtle maple leaf form, denoting the strong Canadian legacy, profile and aspiration of Mount Royal University — our past, present and future.
