The College Board

I keep getting these emails from The College Board, which is weird, because I made a point of always saying I didn't want to recieve emails from them, ever. Thats not what this post is about. This post is about their logo.

What the hell is that thing? It's kind of like an acorn, but it has a leaf? Are they trying to evoke an apple, which would make sense? If so, they have failed miserably. It's all misshapen and deformed, like some sort of weird...weird thing.

Does anyone know?
