Arizona campus labyrinth makes its debut!
Posted: May 13, 2013
More than 25 students, faculty, and staff helped build a labyrinth on the Arizona campus, Saturday, May 11. This project was organized by the ATSU Cultural Competency in Education Committee.
The labyrinth is located on the northwest corner of the main building between the main building and the YMCA. It was built to create a beautiful physical space on campus where one can go to get away, take a few moments of quiet time, connect with self, and de-stress.
Labyrinths are ancient tools thought to facilitate balance, healing, spiritual awakening, and protection. A seven-ring circle labyrinth is a symbol of wholeness and unity, represented in many indigenous cultures around the world including the Pima and Hopi Indian nations in Arizona.
