Visual Text
The top two-thirds of the wall is covered in bright blue paint. On the left are the words "Sigma Delta Tau" on on top of the other painted in black. To the right of those words a white and red life preserver with two crossed black oars behind it are painted. To the right of that are the words "SINK" painted in a black, tall and close together font, "or" painted in a black and a simplistic font, and "Swim" painted in black and a cursive font. The bottom third of the wall is painted white and includes the words "11th @ FORUM Pool" painted in black. To the left of those words is a design in red. The design has two diamonds one on top of the other. The points of the diamonds that are in the middle facing each other have arrow tips. To the right and left of those two diamonds are two triangle tips (without a third side) facing away from each other. All four parts come together to make a larger diamond outline.
