The 16-foot-tall bronze flame is often the first thing students notice when on campus. It sits atop a structure that, for the past 50 years, has in part defined the university’s character. Since 1965, the Abraham S. Kay Center for Spiritual Life has provided a home for students of all faiths and beliefs, anchoring AU in its commitment to diversity, social justice, and the support of the whole student. Kay currently supports 24 faiths on campus.
