Two different seals mark the lower corners of this California State University, Los Angeles diploma sample. One represents the CSU system; the other names the Los Angeles campus and carries the year 1947. Between them, four signing positions complete an award conferred by the CSU Trustees on the faculty’s recommendation. Blackletter extends beyond the university heading to the body text and even the small signing labels.
