UP Legacy Award
On the left side is the Panamerican oak, that half is the Alumni parents, the seed that bore fruit for the children. Parents are strong trees; in ancient Greece, the oak was considered a tree sacred to Zeus and, as such, a symbol of justice and moral rectitude. For the Panamerican, the oak is the richest tree since creation. It symbolizes superiority, moral, spiritual and physical strength in the face of adversity. Its rooted trunk represents the deep solidity of the humanistic formation that inspires study.
On the left side, the text LEGACY represents the children: popular wisdom says that the best inheritance that can be left to a child is education, and an education of both academic and human excellence is what they find at Panamericana. It is the trust in the institution that passes from one generation to the next.
The recognition we give to the families is designed in such a way that they can be integrated (the parents are the oak tree and the children are the legacy) and can be exhibited independently; but, when assembled, they form the complete logo, thus expressing the strength of the family and the trust in the university.
"United they are stronger."
