Over at Greg Nyquist and Dan Barnes' blog, Ayn Rand Contra Human Nature, folks have been discussing Founders College. For those who don't know, it's a new liberal arts college in Virginia which obviously has ties to Objectivism (of the ARI variety), but doesn't want to come clean on its connection. (Which isn't to say that it is supported or sponsored by the ARI, which I doubt.)
Here is further evidence of the Objectivist connection.

For what it's worth, I think a college with a moderate Objectivist tilt would be a step up from what Russell Kirk called Behemoth State University.

i dunno, looks sort of... Moslem? with the crescent & everything? except it isn't green? or maybe it's a sun worship thing - that's catching on.
It looks more like atlast holding up the world. If it is, wouldn't that be more of a link to objectivism than its similarity to the anthem cover?

perhaps these folks can speak to the origins of the design?
