Purpose, Charge & Values
Our purpose in the Division of Mission Integration is to help the university community live its Catholic, Jesuit, and humanistic mission. We do this by serving our students, faculty, staff, and friends in ways inspired by the Society of Jesus. By collaborating with and supporting other university areas on programs and opportunities that enhance our Jesuit mission, the Division of Mission Integration is engaged in cura personalis (care for the whole person) and cura apostolica (care for the institution).
