The first version of the TALH symbol
only used on the first TALH Newsletter. Originally the symbol only stood for
Texas Academy (as shown underneath) and the LU, for Lamar, was replaced with LH
for Leadership in the Humanities. This was also used on the first brochure.

Original use of the Globe symbol on fliers

Painted on the A-Wing door of the original dorm
academy students occupied, Gentry. Painted by Valeri Leige, in the Spring of
1996, it contains many academic symbols for knowledge and continuing education.
Housing ordered the door be re-painted white soon after the door was finished,
however with Faculty, Staff, and Academy support at a protest, the crest still
exists on the A-Wing door.
This
is a drawing (similar to the door above) also done by Valerie, was used in the
'yearbook', for the 1996 graduating seniors.
This patch was used on the Charter Class of
1996's graduation sashes.
This version is a cleaned up version of the
second version of the original symbol, also including the LU-star in the center.
