Meaning and History
Since the 1940s, the Fordham Rams logo has changed several times, but the designers did not deviate from the ram theme. In 1941-1947 the animal mascot was drawn with dark red lines on a white background. In 1994, a new version appeared – with a confident ram, one species of which expressed anger. Black shadows with burgundy spots enhanced the impression. Below was the inscription “Fordham.” All letters were in capital letters, although the “F” and “M” rose significantly above the rest.
In 2001, the developers left the previous style, but reduced the head and moved it down the emblem. The top half was occupied by the word “Fordham.” The modern logo was adopted in 2008. It is a large letter “F” with three outlines (white, gray, black) and a ram’s head depicted in half-profile.
