| Title: | [Bronze sculpture representing the values of Andrews University] |
| Description: | Carl Meyer, interior decorator, explains the symbolism involved in the bronze sculpture in the administration building of Andrews University to vice-president of financial affairs, V.E. Garber. There are four major aspects to the sculpture: 1.) the circles on the far left symbolize the physical aspect of life and learning; 2.) the cross at the far right symbolizes the Christian values Andrews University; 3.) the prominent pyramidal shield in the center symbolizes the 'flame of knowledge' which is the mental aspect of learning; 4.) the lattice-like structure beneath the sculpture symbolizes the social and communal aspect of learning |
