John Harris, professor of math and director of the Cothran Center for Vocational Reflection, was interviewed by WYFF News 4 about the university’s installation of a peace pole. Harris said the pole can inspire someone “to stop and think about the beauty of the place, but also think about what peace might mean to them.” The story aired on WYFF’s 6 p.m. newscast.
