The entire logo is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image.

The logo is a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution.

The image is used to identify the organization Liceo de Cagayan University, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the organization, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the organization, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey.There is commentary in the article about the logo itself as follows: The Balance Scale is the universal symbol of Justice.It represents the first academic program offering of the Liceo which was the College of Law and reflects the paradigm that justice and fairness is of paramount significance in interpersonal relationships within the University.

The Open Book symbolizes the Book of Knowledge and our quest for it as well as the teaching-learning activity and all other such related activities which is the main concern of the University.

The Roman Numerals MCMLV is indicative of the University foundation year, 1955

The two branches of the Laurel Leaves stand for Victory to which every Licean must aspire to achieve in all the challenges that confront him.

The Latin motto NIL SINE NUMINE translates to “Nothing Without the Divine Will” which motto was adopted by the University’s Founders subscribing to the Catholic tenet of Faith in Divine Providence..

Because it is a logo there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.
