The college’s values are characterized by a commitment to serving others and seeking just solutions to the many problems of today's world. We welcome students from many faith traditions, and our students are encouraged and mentored to set high goals — and to grow intellectually, spiritually and professionally toward a life filled with purpose and meaning.
