The emblem was designed in 2002 by the students Jorge Armando Gutiérrez and Luis Carlos Camaño, guided by the teacher José Calixto Fonseca.
The emblem is made of a white disk surrounded by two gray rings, representing planet Earth and the oil resources of the municipality. The name of the institute, as "INST. EDUC. JOHN F. KENNEDY", is placed in the upper part of the disk, surmounting a green shield that symbolizes the natural environment and aspiration to a better future. The shield is charged with the symbol of the Alliance for Progress. The symbol is made of a circle, representing the union of nations, inscribing an arrow showing progress towards new goals; the flanks of the arrow are inscribed with the institute's principles, "AUTONOMIA" (Autonomy) and "SABIDURIA" (Knowledge). The arrow supports a hand holding a flaming torch symbolizing honour. Left of the arrow is represented a computer as a reference for the emphasis put by the institute on computer science.
Beneath the disk is a rising sun charged with the letters "JFK", flanked by two gray comets that symbolize life. The name of the municipality is written on two red wings symbolizing transcendence, while the institute's third principle, "LIBERTAD" (Liberty), is written on a blue scroll.
The colours of the emblem are those of the flags of Colombia (yellow, blue, and red), of the Boyacá Department (green, white, and red), and of the municipality of Puerto Boyacá (gray, white, and green).

image by Ivan Sache, 3 January 2009

"Colegio Jordán de Sajonia" was recognized by the Ministry of National Education on 18 May 1998 (Decree No. 3417). as the legal successor of "Escuela Apostólica San Vicente Ferrer", originally founded in the Colombian Marian town of Chiquinquirá, Department of Boyacá, in the 1940s. On 29 September 1959, the new building of the institute, which had been relocated in Bogotá in 1949, was inaugurated and the institute was renamed after Blessed Jordan of Saxony (c. 1190-1237), second Master General of the Dominican Order and first successor of St. Dominic. The institute is one of the six "colegios" ran  by the Dominican Order, together with the "Universidad Santo Tomás", in Colombia  (Province of San Luis Bertrán of the Order).
The flag of the institute, as shown graphically and described on the website of the institute, is green with a triangle horizontally divided black-white placed along the hoist  and pointing to the coat of arms of the institute, which is, apparently, placed in the middle of the flag.
Green represents virtue and hope. Black and white are the colours of the Dominican Order.
Black, as absorbing light, represents interiorization and appropriation of knowledge.
White, as the lack of colour and the plenitude of light, represents truth revealed to mankind and enlightening it.
The coat of arms of the institute was designed by Friar Alberto Epaminondas Ariza, who was in charge of the transfer of the institute to its new site in the 1950s. The shield is horizontally divided, on top a half Cross of Calatrava, which is the coat of arms of the Dominican Order, on bottom a landscape showing a green oak in front of green mountains surmounted by a blue sky with three white clouds. The oak represents the firmness of the education program of the college, expected to raise the students up to mountains where they will challenge storms.
The shield is surmounted by a scroll bearing a star symbolizing St. Dominic and the motto of the college, "STEMUS SIMUL" ("Let us stand together", Isaiah 50.8), adopted in 1954. The border is coloured or (dexter) and argent (sinister) to symbolize the rich educationalist tradition of the Dominican community. The black writing "COLEGIO JORDÁN DE SAJONIA - DOMINICOS" was added to the border of the shield in 1997.

Former, original flag of the University

The Jorge Tadeo Lozano University of  Bogotá (Universidad de Bogotá Jorge Tadeo Lozano) was founded on 5 February 1954 by Joaquín Molano Campuzano, Javier Pulgar Vidal and Jaime Forero Valdés. The main goal of the University was "to continue on the cultural and scientific work initiated during the Botanical Expedition in the Kingdom of New Granada."  This expedition (Expedición Botánica del Nuevo Reino de Granada) took place in 1783.
Accordingly, the University is named after Jorge Tadeo Lozano (1770-1816). Lozano, born in a noble family from Santafé de Bogotá (today internationally known as Bogotá), studied chemistry in the Royal Laboratory of Madrid (Spain) and was appointed Professor of Chemistry in the Colegio de Nuestra Senora del Rosario in Santa Fé. Lozano took part to the Botanical Expedition as a zoologist. In 1801, he was visited in Santafé by the famous naturalists Humboldt and Bonpland. Lozano was also a patriot. He wrote in 1811 a proposal of liberal Constitution and set up an alliance with Venezuela, which is considered as the first attempt of pan-Americanism. In 1814, Lozano published with José Ángel Manrique the struggle newspaper "El anteojo de larga vista"; he was elected Representative of the Province of Chocó at the General Congress gathered in Santafé. Lozano was arrested and sentenced to death in 1816 with other patriots; he was shot on 6 July 1816. One of the founders of the University, Joaquín Molano, is a descendant of Joaquín Gómez Hoyos, husband of María Tadea Lozano e Isasi, Lozano's widow.
The first faculties of the University, which is nicknamed "la Tadeo", opened in 1955. The University increased with time and more faculties were incorporated. In 1962, the Faculty of Marine Sciences initiated teaching of Aquaculture and Oceanography in Colombia. The bicentenary of the Botanical Expedition was celebrated in 1983 with the structure of the University into three academic areas recalling the goals of the  Expedition: Engineering and Natural Resources (Agricultural Management, Marine Biology, Food Science, Agrology and Geography), Law and Economics (Law, Management, Information Systems, International Trade, Public Accounting, Economics, Market, International Relations, Foreign Trade and Tourism) and Arts, Design and Communication (Architecture, Interior Design, Fine Arts, Social Communication, Graphic Design, Industrial and Commercial Design). Some faculties have been relocated in Cartagena and Santa Marta.
The flag of the University is blue with the emblem of the University in the middle. This flag was adopted by the Board of the University on 1 December 2001 (Decree #19). It superseded the former, original flag of the University, which was horizontally divided green-black.
The University used three successive emblems. The first, original emblem shows a green star with the white letters UJTL, the acronym of the University, supported by a stylized bird (?). This emblem is based on the emblem of the Peruvian party APRA, itself based on the Halcón from the local culture Chavin from Huantar. It recalls the strong Indo-American feelings of APRA, shared by the founders of the University.
The second emblem of the University was proposed by Dr. Fabio Lozano y Lozano, President of the Board of the University and member of the International Institute of Genealogy and Heraldry, and approved by the Board on 13 June 1960. The shield is: "El de Bogotá, teniendo en cuenta el nombre de la misma y el hecho de haber sido fundada en esta ciudad". (The [shield] of Bogotá, because of bearing the name of the city and having been founded in the city). The graphical design of the emblem was made by the artist César Pedraza, alumnus of the Faculty of Geography of the University. The shield of the University differs from the standard coat of arms of Bogotá by its Spanishized shape and some further details. The original shield of Santafé de Bogotá was granted by Emperor Charles V for the whole Kingdom of New Granada, by patented letters signed on 3 December 1548 in Valladolid: "… por sus armas conocidad un escudo que en medio dél haya una águila negra rampante entera, coronada de oro, que en cada mano tenga una granada colorada en campo de oro, y por erla unos ramos con granadas de oro en campo azul …". The eagle (águila) symbolizes greatness and noble view; as portrayed on the shield, it is an adaptation of Isobel the Catholic's eagle. The shield is crowned by a Duke's coronet, as it is often the case on the shield of Spanish cities.
The third, currently in use, emblem of the University was proposed by Dr. Alfonso Velasco Rojas, Head of the Department of Publishing and Corporate Emblematic of the University and approved by the Board on 1 August 2000 (Decree #13). The graphical design of the emblem was made by Felipe Duque Rueda. The shield of the University is surrounded by a ring bearing the name of the University and flanked by the year of foundation: 19 (left) 54 (right). The whole emblem is coloured in blue; the name of the University is written below the emblem in black. The representation of the shield has been improved compared with the second version of the emblem of the University. The multicoloured version of the emblem shall be used only in the official documents of the University released by the Rectorate and the General Secretariat. The flag of the University features that coloured version of the emblem.
