An important trait about the Institute: They seem quite intent on restoring the oftentimes historic church structures that they occupy.

The White Eagle has been a significant Polish icon for generations and the crest shown here is original to the church (Milwaukee's Polish "mother" church). Just out of view of the picture is a big speaker that keeps the White Eagle practically hidden from most of the church. Among many other changes, the speaker system is supposed to be altered to reveal this Polish iconography once again.
