Caritas Begins at Home

It's a bird! It's a plane! It's "Caritas!"

The 20-ton, 26-foot-high monumental steel sculpture, located in the reflecting pool at the Porter County (Ind.) Court House for 20 years, was recently moved to the VU campus and installed along "Meditation Walk," between Guild Hall and the Chapel.

"Caritas" (Latin for "charitable love") was designed by VU art professor Frederick Frey and erected at the court house at a cost of $40,000 during the 1976 bicentennial celebration of the Declaration of Independence by the Porter County Arts Commission.
