The pyramid lights near the Main Building have been changed to display orange, white and black lights to support the Philadelphia Flyers in the Eastern Conference Finals.

The lights are part of a larger campus lighting plan, according to James Katsaounis, executive director of communications and marketing for the Division of Student Life and Administrative Services.

The current pyramid lights are LED, controlled through software called iPlayer 3, and different lighting displays can be programmed, Katsaounis said.

According to Katsaounis, the units themselves are an "abstract 3-D Drexel seal."

They are tamper-proof and connected to an underground concrete pad, he added.
