Logos
LaGuardia launched its new logo in March 2011. It consists of a red square with nine arrows signifying the College’s inception as Community College Number Nine. The arrows come together in the center of the logo mark to represent introspection, and the negative space at the center and between each of the arrows forms a star representing infinite growth. The emanating lines convey the energy, ideas and solutions that emerge when coming together to ask, “What if?”
Before this logo, LaGuardia used a flower with five petals, symbolizing the five boroughs of New York City; and the first name of its namesake, Fiorello, which in Italian translates to "Little Flower." Capitalizing on its reputation as one of the most diverse campus in the country, the college also used an apple logo covered with various national flags. The apple was taken from the "Big Apple" nickname for New York City.
