The Jesuit spirit of being a positive difference in the world is illuminated in a new campus sculpture by Creighton art professor Littleton Alston, called The Flame. The family of Charles (BSC’49) and Mary Heider, longtime supporters of the University, commissioned the 20-foot-tall stainless steel piece, which features a continually burning flame. The sculpture, unveiled at a ceremony in April, is located near the Harper Center and honors Jesuits past, present and future. Inscriptions along the base, in Latin and English, read: Go set the world on fire.
