Guidelines posted on the U.S. Mint's Web site say "inappropriate" designs for the quarters include logos or specific commercial, educational, religious, sports or other organizations whose membership or ownership is not universal.

This is a sharp change in Mint policy from the days when dimes with the slogan "In God We Trust" were illustrated with the god Mercury.
