FAU Stadium Receives $500,000 Gift and Iconic Clock from ADT
FAU recently received a gift of $500,000 from Boca Raton-based ADT. In appreciation, a large clock featuring the company's iconic blue logo was mounted on the exterior of FAU Stadium. The ADT clock, an emblem of the company's support of its hometown university, was originally installed at Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox, during the famed ballpark's 99th anniversary year. A ceremony to celebrate the clock's new location at FAU Stadium was held prior to the FAU vs. University of Louisiana at Lafayette football game on Saturday, Dec. 1. ADT Vice President of Consumer Marketing Lewis Long presented President Mary Jane Saunders with a check on the field during halftime.

ADT also has signed a sponsorship agreement, which recognizes the company as the exclusive security provider of FAU athletics. As part of the sponsorship, the ADT logo will be featured on all football coaches' headsets. In addition, FAU and ADT will collaborate on an internship program for student athletes and on other academic activities at FAU.
