Pictured is a bronze sculpture titled `Olympic and Paralympic Strength` by Jon Hair on the campus of the University of Central Oklahoma in Edmond. It was dedicated in April 2014. The earth is being held up on the backs of four athletes who represent the diversity in athleticism. One is African American, with a Olympic medal around his neck. A second athlete is female, wearing a medal from the Pan Am Games. A third represents a paralympian and he is wearing a medal from the International Paralympic Committee games. The fourth athlete, wearing sandals and a head sash is an ancient Greek representing the initial Olympic movement.
