The Roman Catholic University athletes’ use of the name and symbolism of a devilish organization is symbolic. The DePaul Blue Demons logo distinguishes fifteen teams. A random play on words created a mascot whose cunning and strength became a characteristic of the players.

Meaning and History
The logo, which was used until 1979, contains the traditional letter “D.” The sign is simple and unremarkable. Designers chose a rectangular font without rounded details and made the background white. Then a little blue devil appeared on the emblem with a tail, beard, and horns. This is one of the graphic versions of the mascot Demon In a Blue Suit, better known as DIBS. She was a distinctive symbol of the sports department from 1979 to 1998.
In 1999, artists modernized the logo. In the background, they depicted a blue-horned heraldic shield. On the front is the inscription “DePaul,” tape with the name of the teams (“Blue Demons”), and a stylized devil head turned in profile. Also, the developers beat the font of the first word, adding sharp serifs in the form of horns.
