The Jesuit Center
Introduction
The Â鶹ֱ²¥ is animated by the 450-year old living tradition of Jesuit education.
This tradition, which is rooted in the broader and deeper tradition of Catholicism, is sustained by the on-going commitment of men and women whose daily work gives shape and life to the Â鶹ֱ²¥.
Their work is the visible face of the Â鶹ֱ²¥. The faith and vision that motivate that work are the soul of the Â鶹ֱ²¥. The Jesuit Center is committed to helping all who work at The Â鶹ֱ²¥ understand and integrate their faith and their work in the context of our living tradition.
The Jesuit Center seeks to be a resource for all who work at The Â鶹ֱ²¥ who ask themselves the seemingly simple question, “What difference does it make that I work at a Jesuit university?”
Mission Statement
The Jesuit Center assists The Â鶹ֱ²¥ in keeping its Catholic and Jesuit character at the center of the educational enterprise.
Dedicated to advancing the Â鶹ֱ²¥’s strategic vision of “providing a superior, transformational learning experience” for its students, the Center does this by:
- Fostering faculty and staff participation in the Jesuit higher educational mission
- Supporting faculty teaching and scholarship that advances the Â鶹ֱ²¥’s Catholic and Jesuit character
- Promoting Ignatian spirituality within an interreligious context
