Organizations Filed Purposes: OUR MISSION IS TO BE A GREAT CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY DEDICATED TO PROVIDING STUDENTS WITH EXCELLENT TEACHING AND LEARNING IN THE FRANCISCAN AND LIBERAL ARTS TRADITION. TO PROVIDE AN EDUCATION DISTINGUISHED IN ITS ABILITY TO PREPARE TRANSFORMATIVE LEADERS FOR SERVICE TO THE WORLD.
